MORE TEAM STATS / NEWS

-UPDATE: The Blues are expected to get Roman Polak and Alex Pietrangelo back into their lineup tonight, meaning they have all their desired D-men playing for the first time since October 23. (NHL.com)

-The Canucks' only regulation loss in their last 10 games came at the hands of: The St. Louis Blues.

The Canucks' 5 on 5 play is on the rise while their power play finally dropped to 2nd overall in the West, as Chicago took top spot last night. It's funny how things can change so quickly. It wasn't all that long ago that the 5 on 5 was under scrutiny while the power play was flying high. Alas, the team has won 7 of it's last 9 so the goals have to be coming from somewhere. Vancouver's  PK on the rise as well, now at an 85% kill rate. Not quite as good as OJ Simpson, but getting there. They have outscored opposing teams 9-4 in their last 3 wins. The defence is there, the offence is putting out and Luongo is looking more like the Luongo we want to see.

The Canucks lost their first place seed in the NW to the Avalanche on Sunday night, as Colorado beat the Habs. Go away, Avs! They have still played 3 more games than Van though.

-Since the Blues beat the Canucks 3-2 on December 5, they have a record of 2-2-1, being outscored 16-14 in the process. They beat the Blue Jackets and Kings and lost to the Red Wings, Hurricanes and the Sharks (Saturday night). As you can see from the Blues' stats above, they play a very gritty (most PIM's) and stingy defensive game. They don't score a lot of goals. You know the effort will be there because not only do they not like us, they are only 2 points

Star-divide

out of a playoff spot.

the Canucks are second in the league in third period scoring. I guess they just pour on the rape when they are ahead.

Think most of us are probably in the same boat there. This game still has playoff sweep residue on it though, and like was already seem we seem to have a bitch of a time with them and it usually turns out as a great game.
