Beginning a four game homestand, Vancouver won the game in overtime, keeping ahead of the Coyotes in the standings, behind them in draft position
Just home after back to back games in California, the Vancouver Canucks faced a much less lethal opponent tonight. Arizona with one win in their last ten games. Despite spotting the Coyotes two goals, the Canucks were able to come back, winning 3-2 in overtime.
The game began with one of the more notable ceremonial faceoffs I can remember. Look at that happy kid.
The first four minutes were uneventful -- Canucks iced the puck a couple times, Vey had a semi-decent chance.
