The Canucks defeated the Edmonton Oilers 5-4 in a very spirited game in Abbotsford.  Elias Pettersson led the way with 2 power play goals.

The Canucks play their final preseason game this Friday against the Arizona Coyotes.

The Canucks reduced their pre-season roster by 13 players. Vancouver's current pre-season roster now consists of 29 players.

With a depleted lineup, the Canucks fell 7-2 to the Edmonton Oilers, dropping their preseason record to 0-3-2.  They have 2 more games remaining.

The Canucks are 0-2-2 after four preseason games.  Is this cause for concern?  Or is nothing to be worried about?

Andrei Kuzmenko had 3 points and Elias Pettersson had 2 points in the Canucks 4-3 overtime loss to the visiting Seattle Kraken.

I break down what I liked, what I didn't like, and other thing from the game.

As the Canucks prepare for their preseason game vs. the Kraken, I talk about what it will take to develop an actual rivalry with our neighbours from the south.

Brock Boeser, Ilya Mikheyev, and Tyler Myers all missed the Canucks practice today, forcing Bruce Boudreau to roll out 4 new lines.

And Travis Dermott got injured during the practice itself.

I talk about Brock Boeser's unfortunate injury and how it effects the Canucks lineup.  Brock had successful hand surgery after getting injured at training camp and is now slated to miss 3-4 weeks.

The Canucks dropped 3-2 and 4-0 decisions to the Calgary Flames in a pair of split-squad games.  

Pettersson, Garland, Podkolzin, and Kuzmenko all had good games in Vancouver, but there is concern about Ilya Mikheyev's injury.

The Canucks opened their three-day training camp in Whistler with some interesting combos at both forward and defence.

I break down all of the combinations and what they might mean for certain players going forward.
