The Vancouver Canucks have nine games left after tonight, and there’s still plenty to play for as they wrap up another likely non-playoff season.
For example, the Canucks have the chance to play the spoiler rule throughout these final three weeks. And even though their heated rivalry with the Chicago Blackhawks has cooled off throughout the years, you can bet these guys still want to put a dent in their former foes’ playoff hopes.
Entering play tonight, the Canucks are eight points behind the Arizona Coyotes for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
