Entering Thursday’s bout to take on the Minnesota Wild, the Pacific Division-leading Vancouver Canucks will be very determined to secure two points before they return home for an important six-game homestand.
The Canucks will be playing their second of three meetings against the Wild this season, looking for back-to-back wins in Saint Paul. The last time these two teams faced off, Vancouver was able to overcome captain, Mikko Koivu and his gang of wild hockey players by a score of 4-1. Canucks captain, Bo Horvat stood out as the Canucks best player, something he would definitely enjoy doing again in order to help get his team another win.
