On paper, the Vancouver Canucks played three games last week. Those who watched the games, though, know that Vancouver only really showed up for two of them.
Sandwiched between two wins, against the Minnesota Wild and the Toronto Maple Leafs, was an unfortunate game against the Anaheim Ducks.
In that game, the Canucks failed to register a shot on goal until over nine minutes into the first period. Although Ryan Miller held them off for over twenty minutes, the Ducks eventually got the lead and coasted through the game.
However, on either side of that game were two solid efforts.
