In this edition of flashback Friday, we look at the Vancouver Canucks’ series-clincher against the Minnesota Wild in the qualifying round.
The Vancouver Canucks were one of 24 teams who returned to play in August following a 2019-20 NHL season suspension that lasted nearly five full months due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
The playoff field underwent drastic changed in a season like no other. The top four teams in each conference received first-round byes, and they participated in a round robin to determine the No. 1 to 4 seeds.
