UPDATE (12:49 PM): Curtis McEllhinney will start in goal for the Ducks tonight.

When the Canucks and Ducks locked horns on October 13, the Ducks were 0-3 to start the season. In those games, Ryan Getzlaf had no points was a -5. Corey Perry had zero points and was a -3. Bobby Ryan was pointless and a -4. All it took was a terrible defensive effort from the visiting Canucks to get them going. In the Ducks' 4-3 win, Getzlaf scored 1 goal and 3 assists, Perry scored a goal, and Ryan scored a goal and 2 points. It was fugly. A choking.

What could possibly happen this time, as anything can happen when these 2 teams play. Entertainment and schizophrenia at its finest. When playing the Ducks, it usually gets physical as well.

The Ducks are playing their second game in as many nights, winning 3-2 in a 10-round shootout against the Oilers last night. Maybe they'll be tired. Maybe that won't

Star-divide

matter unless the Canucks put out a solid effort unlike their last game against (what could have been) a tired Blues squad on Sunday.

WHO'S HOT (CANUCKS)

  • Daniel Sedin: 2 goals and 5 assists in his last 5
  • Henrik Sedin: 1 goal and 5 assists in his last 5
  • Alexandre Burrows: 3 goals and 3 assists in his last 6
  • Jeff Tambellini: 2 goals and 3 assists in his last 5
  • WHO'S HOT (DUCKS)

  • Teemu Selanne has scored 2 goals and 5 assists in his last 6 games.

    That about it. Who has not scored a point in 3 games for the Ducks? Getzlaf, Perry and Ryan. Hmmm.....

  • MISC

    • It looks as though Roberto Luongo and Jonas Hiller will start in goal.
    • The Ducks are 6-4 against the Canucks in their last 10 meetings dating back to October 2008. The Canucks have 3 wins and 2 losses at home against the Quacks in that same span.
    • With Alexandre Bolduc playing super in his first game back from injury/Manitoba, he has claimed his 4th line center spot back for now. Since Joel Perrault is only comfortable at center, he was sent down to Manitoba and some guy named Jonas Andersson, a natural winger, will play his first game with the Canucks. Dan Hamhuis recalled this of Mr. Andersson: "He’s a highly skilled player from what I can remember. He’s an amazing skater and he has great hands. He’s just a really good player," Hamhuis said. "Persistence is a good word. He works extremely hard off the ice. When he was with Nashville he was always one of the top guys in fitness testing. He’s in unbelievable shape."

    It was Halloween, and it was scary. But Canucks prevail 7-6:

    don't forget... all of those teams "below us"

    but close to us in points, other than LA, has played more games than us
    in many cases quite a few more (Ana = 5 more games! Chi = 4 more games!)

    so in terms of points percentage, i.e. percent of total points won out of how many you could have won, we’re comfortable in playoff position right now, and comfortable leading the NW… but all that can change in a span of 5 games

    man

    bottom four teams in the conference from the same division
    i’ve never seen that before!
    remember like 5 years ago when we were the best division? when it would be Anaheim, Detroit, San Jose in the playoffs… and then all 5 teams from our division fighting it out with Dallas and Nashville for the other 5 spots.

    Chicago and Anaheim is way up there but look at their games played. The rest of the west has 4 or 5 games in hand and most of them are down only 1 or 2 points. Once the other teams have played those games I expect them to fall out of playoff contention.

    After checking the record, the numbers really surprised me. Although top line scoring has been a problem for them. Maybe this has something to do with it.

    I’m looking at their Defensive stats… Who’s this Toni Lydman guy? Ranking the plus/minus of all the d-men who have played over 15 games, he’s +15 and the rest are 1, -2, -3, -6, -7, and -9.
