Things couldn’t have gone much better for the Vancouver Canucks heading into the All-Star break.
Entering Tuesday, they sit atop the Pacific Division with a 27-18-4 record. If the Vegas Golden Knights fall on the road to the Boston Bruins today, Vancouver will retain their surprising lead in the division.
Of course, the Canucks still have a long way to go in holding down the top spot. The Golden Knights, Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames and Arizona Coyotes are all just one point behind with 57 apiece.
General manager Jim Benning might feel the need to upgrade his roster at the upcoming Feb.
