3 games and a whopping 7 goals to show for it. This isn’t a shock for some, as the changes the Canucks made in the off-season, while decent in how they swapped out parts of the Canucks desperate for change, weren’t seriously going to make the Canucks an offensive juggernaut.
And if there’s a method to the madness of Travis Green, it’s yet to reveal itself in the form of wins (save for the opener against the Oilers). Yes, it’s early and I am not suggesting that Green doesn’t know what he’s doing. It’s just puzzling that there’s a reluctance to get Virtanen and Boeser something resembling halfway decent ice time, but we think that’s likely coming from Jim Benning.
