Kent did a great job of expressing the collective feeling about the Canucks in the game preview. This team sucks right now. They have sucked against a wide variety of talent and systems. The Canucks have had leads in every single game and in every game there has been a moment where you almost let yourself believe that a win is in the bag. Except the bag....the defense....has a hole in it.
The Canucks had no success against the Sabres last year, losing both games. The Sabres have won 3 out of 4 of their games this year and seem to be a team that is gaining confidence as they played Florida tough in a loss and then won both games in Alberta.
