Vancouver Canucks vs. Anaheim Ducks: Preview, Lineups
The Vancouver Canucks will try to earn two home wins in a row versus division rivals, when the Anaheim Ducks come to town.
The Pacific Division playoff picture is coming into focus, and for the Vancouver Canucks it isn’t good news.
They are one of two teams that are falling behind in the race — the other being the Arizona Coyotes. Vancouver sits eight points out of third in the division, and six points out of a wild card spot.
Those are tough odds to overcome. But, there is good news. The Canucks just beat one of the teams they are chasing, the L.A. Kings. They have a chance to gain two more points tonight against the Anaheim Ducks, who currently hold third place in the Pacific.
