Sam Gagner Replaces Jake Virtanen On Canucks First Line
Vancouver Canucks forward Sam Gagner will be bumped up to the first line for Friday's game versus Minnesota. Jake Virtanen was the first guy getting a look following a season-ending injury to Brock Boeser, but he failed to impress on Wednesday against Arizona, finishing with no points and just one shot on goal in 18 […]
Jacob Markstrom Questionable For Friday's Tilt
Vancouver Canucks goalie Jacob Markstrom missed practice on Thursday with an illness, which makes him questionable to play on Friday night against Minnesota. The 28-year-old has had some really nice performances recently, including a 39-save effort against Nashville, so it would certainly be a blow for him personally to miss out. Anders Nilsson will take […]
Henrik Sedin Making History With Massive Goalless Streak
Vancouver Canucks center Henrik Sedin is on a career-high 48-game goalless streak and on the brink of league history. No player has previously scored two or fewer goals in a season with 40-plus assists, but that's exactly where Sedin is heading. He didn't even register a shot on goal for a second consecutive game in […]
Jussi Jokinen Scores First Canucks Goal
Vancouver Canucks forward Jussi Jokinen scored his first goal for the team in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Arizona, finishing off a nice move on a delayed penalty call. Jokinen has started life in Vancouver on the same line with the Sedin brothers, but he was actually fed by Brendan Leipsic and Sam Gagner. He had […]
Jacob Markstrom Goes For Second Win Versus Coyotes
Vancouver Canucks goalie Jacob Markstrom, who ended a personal three-game losing streak on Monday, will be between the pipes again on Wednesday against the Arizona Coyotes. Markstrom had 31 saves against the Islanders in a 4-3 overtime win to improve his record to 18-21-6. He should have a great chance of making it two wins […]
Jake Virtanen Moved To First Line On Wednesday
Vancouver Canucks right wing Jake Virtanen will get a look on the first line in Wednesday's clash with Arizona. In an expected move, Virtanen will replace Brock Boeser, who injured his back in Monday's win over the Islanders. Virtanen picked up some momentum from the last game with a goal and an assist, recording four […]
Brock Boeser Likely Done For The Season
Vancouver Canucks right wing Brock Boeser is likely done for the season after suffering a lower back injury in Monday's tilt against the Islanders. The 21-year-old rookie sensation had a nasty fall, going back-first into an open bench door, and he's set to miss four to six weeks. There are just over four weeks left […]
Brock Boeser Injury Hampers Canucks Overtime Victory
Vancouver Canucks rookie winger sensation Brock Boeser was injured in Monday’s game against the New York Islanders. With less than 30 seconds remaining in regulation, Boeser had an unfortunate accident as his proposed hit on the Islanders Cal Clutterbuck resulted in Boeser colliding with the Canucks open bench door. He needed help getting off the […]
Brendan Leipsic Leads Canucks Past The Isles
Vancouver Canucks left wing Brendan Leipsic put on a show on Monday, as he finished with two goals and three points in a 4-3 overtime win against the New York Islanders. Brock Boeser exited the game after an awkward fall, so the Canucks needed a new hero and Leipsic delivered. His goal sparked a comeback […]
Daniel Sedin Looking to Continue Hot Streak
Looking to continue his vintage 2011 Art Ross form, Vancouver Canucks forward Daniel Sedin is on a monstrous run of form as of late. Having notched 13 points in his past nine games (eight goals, five assists), Sedin is looking to continue his recent tear against the struggling New York Islanders. Although he is no […]
Jacob Markstrom In Net For Canucks Versus Isles
Vancouver Canucks goalie Jacob Markstrom has been awful in recent outings, but he'll keep his place as a starter on Monday. He gave up three goals on five shots last Wednesday against the Rangers before getting pulled and allowed four goals on Friday in a 4-3 overtime loss to Nashville. He won't have it easy […]
Thomas Vanek To Debut, Nick Foligno To Return To Blue Jackets On Thursday
Columbus Blue Jackets left wing Thomas Vanek (owned in 15 percent of Yahoo! Leagues) joined left wing Nick Foligno (32 percent) on the second line with center Alex Wennberg (19 percent) during Wednesday's practice, according to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic. Vanek is set to make his debut as a Blue Jacket after they acquired him […]
