Canucks: Analyzing their 5-on-5 play so far this season

The Vancouver Canucks lead the Pacific Division heading into the All Star break, and it feels like it’s been forever since that last happened.

This team has had its ups and downs throughout the yea, but they’ve been competitive in every single game. Last year, they were just 25th in goals for and 20th in goals against.

Vancouver has scored 43 power play goals this year, second most in the NHL. But more importantly, have they improved at 5-on-5? And is the penalty kill more effective this year?

I will try to answer these questions in my next three articles.
