Vancouver Canucks vs. Winnipeg Jets: Preview, Lineups
The Vancouver Canucks will look to get back in the win column after narrowly pulling off another epic comeback win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Sunday.
It’s a story of two teams headed in opposite directions. The Winnipeg Jets are fighting for a playoff spot as their young core tries to put them into Stanley Cup contention. The Vancouver Canucks are trying to avoid being the NHL’s worst team in 2017 as the playoffs are a pipe dream at this point.
Can the Canucks find a way to beat their Western Canadian rivals?
