Vancouver Canucks: Final February games have major playoff implications

After winning just one of three games on their California road trip, the Vancouver Canucks are in practice mode until Feb. 21.

The Canucks enter the four-day break coming off a tough 3-2 loss to the San Jose Sharks on Feb. 16 at the SAP Centre. With the loss, Vancouver’s point total stays at 59, one point out of the final Wild Card playoff spot in the Western Conference. The Minnesota Wild hold that postseason berth with 60 points, entering play on Sunday.

Given that the rest of the conference is technically within arms reach of the final wild card spot, the Canucks in for a grueling finish to the 2018-19 campaign.
