With the COVID-19 exposure seemingly behind them when a false positive test to a player led to the shutdown of the last day of training camp, the Canucks are almost ready to open the 2021 NHL season with 2 games in Edmonton starting tomorrow. What they still need is their finalized roster and taxi squad, and that will be coming today.
The season starts with 4 games in 6 days in Alberta: back to back in Edmonton tomorrow and Thursday followed by games Saturday and Monday in Calgary. They return to Vancouver for their home opener against the Montreal Canadiens next Wednesday.
