Every single one of the Vancouver Canucks’ upcoming games will be extremely important in the fight for the playoffs. The team has many match-ups against Pacific Division foes left, but keeping an eye on the wild card spots, meetings with Central teams are equally important.
As of today, the Canucks are six points out of a wild-card spot that — you guessed it — is currently inherited by the Avalanche. However, the Avs have played three more games. So, assuming the Canucks find a way to win this one, they would only be four points behind Colorado while having three games in hand — a good start.
