Fresh off another ‘close, but not close enough’ loss, the Canucks head into what is hands-down the most emotionally difficult game they’ll play all season as they take on the New York Islanders this afternoon. I would have preferred to kicked this particular can down the road, at least from a fandom perspective. The trade, and the pain associated with it are still very fresh, and it’s going to be difficult to watch.
