It seemed like a pretty good set up, really. After winning back to back games for the first time since the start of the season, there was a glimmer of hope that they would beat Anaheim and charge into Saturday night on a legit winning streak, ready to take on the Leafs, right all the wrongs and bring peace and harmony to the world. That's a nice story, but this is the 2016/17 Canucks we're talking about. Instead, we get a loss sprinkled liberally with frustrating, indifferent play, maddening player usage by Willie Desjardins and dammit all to hell, the re-emergence of the #VancouverGoaltendingControversy.
