There’s been a lot of misery in Vancouver over the last 52 seasons.
That’s why this start to the season has been so shocking.
Prior to this year’s putrid start, the Canucks had never lost more than three games in a row to begin a new campaign.
With seven straight losses, they’ve more than doubled that horrendous mark in 2022-23.
What’s even more shocking about the Canucks putrid start is that there was legitimate hope entering this season.
Look, the Canucks entered this season as a complete Wild Card. They had the potential to make some noise based on their elite offence (on paper) coupled with a Vezina-worthy goaltender.
