The Canucks went into this afternoon game still “hot”, but unable to use their power play to claim points in the previous two games. Nevermind the shorthanded one at the death of the Predators game. Sure, that was bad. The Flyers gave the Canucks 8 chances at the power play, and they were only able to get one goal from that largesse.
But that was on the road. The Canucks would do better on the home ice surface, right ? Wellllllll..........
- If a Canadian team does not play on Saturday night, chances are they are going to be the “Hometown Hockey” team the next day / night.
