Last season when the Vancouver Canucks hit the road for the first time, their season kind of, well, fell apart.
After starting 4-0 on home ice during a four-game mirage, the following road trip spurred a nine-game losing streak that showed the club’s true colours.
Not so much this time around for the boys in blue and green. They’ve gone 3-1 and have looked downright impressive if not for a horrid penalty kill against the Boston Bruins.
