The Vancouver Canucks hung around in the playoff race for the entirety of the 2019-20 regular season before it was suspended indefinitely last week, and you can’t help but wonder where this team would be in the standings right now.
Prior to the season pause, the Canucks and Nashville Predators were tied for the final wild card spot in the Western Conference (78 points apiece). The Preds hold the tiebreaker because they have one extra regulation win.
But with two games in hand, Vancouver was also just two points behind the Winnipeg Jets for the first wild card spot, and one point behind the Calgary Flames for third in the Pacific Division.
