The Vancouver Canucks came into this match up against the Anaheim Ducks with a 6-3-1 record in the past ten games (tied for third best in the league) and were looking to keep up their scoring success after a 5-4 win over the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday.
The Anaheim Ducks handed Vancouver their first regulation loss of the season earlier this year. That also happened to be loss that kicked off a 9 game losing streak. After tonights performance, I’m really hoping that doesn’t become the trend.
Ryan Kesler returned to Vancouver after a strong November with 7 goals, 7 assists and winning 60% of his face-offs.
