Well, Saturday wasn’t the most fun day for the Vancouver Canucks. The Calgary Flames beat them, 3-1 while ending the Canucks’ most impressive run on the season. Vancouver isn’t exactly known for putting together many hot streaks, but they’ll take another crack at it when they face the Nashville Predators.
Nashville, a Stanley Cup contender of recent years, currently ranks sixth in the Western Conference wild card standings, even two points behind the Canucks. They do have two games in hand, though, and will try to get back into playoff contention as soon as possible.
Though some people hate the term, this truly is a “four-point game.
