The Vancouver Canucks should keep the film of this game, and file it under “how not to play”.
Held without a shot in the first period, they handed Arizona Coyotes goaltender Mike Smith one of the easier shutouts he will ever earn.
When the team plays this poorly, it’s tough to find a bright spot. And so, we go off the board: Jack Skille is the Canucks Player of the Game!
Skille, along with linemates Brendan Gaunce and Michael Chaput, skated on the teams fourth line.
