- The Canucks' first ever team captain Orland Kurtenbach will be honored before the game, the first in the Canucks' Ring of Honor honorees.
- The Avalanche and goalie Craig Anderson have lost 2 in a row, surrendering 10 goals in the process. As a result, Peter Budaj will start for this one. As solid of a season that Mr. Anderson had last year, the Canucks mostly had their way with him/them, taking the season series 4-1-1 and outscoring Colorado 25-15. I'm sure this is fresh on the Avs' minds.
- Behind Colorado's leading scorers Chris Stewart and John-Michael Liles are: Paul Stastny (4-5-9), Milan Hejduk (4-3-7) and Matt Duchene (1-6-7). Hejduk is a team-worst -8.
These highlights never get old. Canucks beat on the Avs 8-2 last season.
1996 Playoffs Game 5. Sakic and Linden score hat tricks.
Enjoy the game! There won't be another Canucks game until November 1st.
