Nuck’s Misconduct Reverend/ Church of the kesLORD. "Henrik mis-hit a pass that trickled into the slot, but it found Damiel perfectly open for a slam dunk. It was almost Matrix-like. It looked the Sedins slowed the entire game down so that they could do what they want." Mike Helka, Dallas M.N. 12/31/10

Canucks win and they officially lead the NHL in points.
Can anyone remember the last time this happened? Have they ever led the league?
That's a good question
I can’t imagine they’ve lead the league, even briefly, anytime recently unless it was a strong start in October.

When was the last time they had a strong start in October?

That’s just about as rare as being tops in the league!

2003-2004 season they finished October in first in points, though not in winning percentage. 7-2-2 versus Tampa’s 6-0-1.

Nice catch Johnny
At the end of October they definitely had the most points in the NHL.
Boston eventually passed them midway through November.
