The NHL, by it's very geographical setup is going to have some issues when it comes to scheduling and travel. The Canucks, along with the other Western teams, have lived with this fact, even incorporated aspects of their training and day to day routines because of it. But there is no reason on earth that every time the Vancouver Canucks visit Pittsburgh, that it has to be on a Saturday and the game be played at 9:30 am Pacific time. Yes, the Eastern teams still have to play at 7pm PST when they hit the West Coast (unless you're the Leafs of course).
