The Canucks can’t score of late. They’ve averaged just barely over a goal since Bo Horvat went down with an injury three games ago.
Are there options in the Canucks lineup already or with their farm team the Utica Comets that could help out? It’s hard to say. Mostly, when one has this conversation, it centres around Nikolay Goldobin and now Reid Boucher.
That was the case this morning when Mike Halford and Jason Brough had our own, CanucksArmy’s Managing Editor J.D. Burke, on the show for a quick chat at about 9:30 AM this morning.
After the three discuss Goldobin and Boucher, they get into the Canucks newest acquisition Nic Dowd and what he can offer the Canucks in their final 40-plus games of the season. It’s a great chat, but don’t take my word for it, listen for yourself!
You can follow this link to listen to the show, too. And if you like what you’ve heard, tune in on Saturday between 3-5 PM on TSN 1040 AM to listen to this week’s episode of Nation Network Radio. There’s a roster change this week, as Burke will have TSN’s Karen Surman as a co-host in Jon Abbott’s stead, as he’s on his way to Buffalo for the World Juniors.
