Daytime games are not kind to the Canucks. We looked forward to this home game after a pointless road trip, because a bounce back statement game was on the schedule.
Turns out, it was on the Devils schedule - but with more bounces. They were blanked by the Oil previous game, so why do we care? We don’t.
This game, the Nucks did score a goal. So, it was 1000% improvement over their last meeting with the Devils. But, the Devils output doubled too. And worse, won the game in a single period. Ugh.
1st Period
Nucks start sluggish.
