THE INTRO Today, the Canucks will take on the visiting Anaheim Ducks and they’ll be looking for their second-straight win. The win after the Sedin ceremony was massive but they held the fort despite giving up 49 shots. If you continue to read the CA game-day report you’ll know that the power play is discussed…
THE INTRO The Vancouver Canucks will take on their former rivals, the Chicago Blackhawks this evening. Things have been going fairly well for the Canucks aside from that little blip on the radar last week. It’s also a big night for a few other players: Henrik and Daniel Sedin will be in the building tonight,…
THE INTRO Sedins Week Part 1: Legend’s Night. Luongo, Kesler, Naslund, Trevor, Bur…. Smyl, Gradin; The pregame for Canucks versus Predators is going to be a show. There is a lot of star power to celebrate the Sedins this week but after all of that, there is a game to play. The Canucks have lost…
THE INTRO Vancouver begins their six-game homestand tonight against the Calgary Flames. The end of their road trip wasn’t something many will want to revisit so it’s time to turn the page and focus on their current challenge: the power play (did you think, did you think I meant the Flames?). Sure, the Canucks can…
THE INTRO Tonight the Canucks come into Minnesota looking to rebound from a pathetic showing against the Bruins. They’ll have their work cut out for them as the Wild have a one-game win streak going. Plain and simple, the Canucks need to be better. They have shown they are capable of being a playoff team…
THE INTRO It’s a good thing the Canucks already lost on the weekend so they can get back to the grind when they take on the 2011 Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins. The Bruins have won three straight and have the second-best record in the NHL, no pressure. Boston has only lost twice in regulation…
THE INTRO Yet another morning tilt for the Vancouver Canucks as they take on the #BunchOfJerks in a local matinee. The Carolina Hurricanes are coming off a late-game collapse versus the Golden Knights on Friday and will look to bounce back against a surging Canucks squad that has rattled off five-straight victories. Everything is going…
THE INTRO I’m back from Vegas and I’m ready to go! Thanks to Chris Faber and David Quadrelli for taking over in my absence. I think those might have been the first two games I’ve missed since 2012; my Ironman streak is over. Today, the Canucks play an early one, really early, against the New…
The Loui Eriksson narrative has been done to death. Should you choose to continue reading, you won’t find yet another “the Canucks need to find a way to trade Loui” piece, that is a promise. It’s done. That was 2019. No more Gangnam Style, no more Mambo #5, no more Kermit memes. It’s time to…
THE SKINNY I had to start this one late tonight. My daughter had her 9th birthday party so the PVR was set. Unfortunately, I had it on the SD channel on our other TV. Not good. The first period didn’t look stellar but the Canucks were in control from the get-go. I wasn’t entirely sure…
THE INTRO Happy Lunar New Year! Tonight, the Canucks take on the Sharks in a very important Western Conference tilt… for the Canucks at least. San Jose has been pretty stingy against the Canucks since 2017 but Vancouver does have wins in two of their last three meetings with the Sharks. This game has a…
THE INTRO Tonight is a pivotal tilt between the Canucks and Arizona Coyotes. Vancouver is three points back of Arizona in the Pacific but beating the Coyotes keeps the race going for a Canucks squad that hopes to shed the “bubble” moniker and turn itself into a playoff contender. Puck luck dominated the Canucks last…
