Coming off a well-managed loss to the red rot Columbus Blue Jackets on Sunday — a rare game in which the Vancouver Canucks paid the winning coach, regardless of outcome — the Canucks begin a three-game pre-Christmas stretch against Western Canadian opponents. Nic Petan will draw into the Winnipeg Jets lineup tonight, replacing Chris Thorburn. Jacob Markstrom gets the start in net for Vancouver.
