With each passing loss, it’s becoming more difficult for Vancouver Canucks fans to stay positive.
During this winless stretch, the Canucks have been within one goal to start every third period. Technically, this means that they had a chance of winning every game.
But if you’ve watched most of the games, you know that they haven’t been that close to winning any of them.
Vancouver is getting unlucky, to a degree. Pucks have bounced over forwards’ sticks in the slots. Great chances have been missed, or opposing goalies have made great saves.
You can’t account for luck in hockey.
