CANUCKS NEWS: It was, to say the least, an eye-opener. And for those of you who looked at the Canucks so far and felt confident in saying that this team wasn’t as bad as predicted and they were going to stay in the mix? Still feel that way? That game, against one of the elites of the NHL showed just how far the Canucks have to go to become relevant again.
Sure, there were some positives to take away from it. Brock Boeser continues to amass points, and you know the goal explosion is coming. Travis Green said he didn’t like Nikolay Goldobin’s game last night, but there wasn’t a player who worked harder, especially in the second.
