The Vancouver Canucks made .500 on the season. This is where the season can start anew and the Canucks redeem where they went wrong in the first three games. The Canucks started the season 0-3. They have gone 5-2 since then and are showing still some signs of lapse and defensive issues.
While the leafs did have a strong game last night they are not exactly um the Colorado Avalanche.... We kid but they are the worst team in the NHL and the Canucks had a tough time to win that game in the 3rd period.
Roberto Luongo is back. He has a 1.50 GAA in his last 4 games is 3-1 in that span. The Oilers streak is just as sizzling winning 4 of their last 4 but losing last night to the Flames 5-2.
Do both the Canucks and Oilers go back to back with their goaltenders? Especially the Canucks who still need to gain ground and ride Roberto's hot streak and try to get revenge on the Oilers? Word is the Canucks will start Luongo.
The Oilers won't have defensemen Sheldon Souray or Steve Staios. The Oilers have the Flu bug running through their team as Gilbert Brule, Mike Comrie were out of the lineup against the Flames and Fernando Pisani is still out with a back injury.
The Canucks will get back (or start finally) Mats Schneider and thier PP should be the stronger for it (they tallied 2 more PP goals last night). Pavol Demitra, Sami Salo, Daniel Sedin and Rick Rypien remain on the sideline.
Go Canucks Go....
