Last year, the Canucks mustered a mere 10 goals in 7 preseason games. They’ve matched that total in the past two games against the Edmonton Oilers. Three things that the Canucks needed to change from the past few years were getting more balanced scoring, more offence from the defence and getting the power play going again. They ticked all those boxes off last night in an impressive 6-1 win in Edmonton.
Brogan Rafferty has been one of the pleasant surprises of training camp, and he had another solid night, this time getting the goal parade started early in the first.
