The Canucks will play their final 3 games of the season this week. All 3 teams they face are golfing after the weekend but that doesn't make these games a walk in the park. Especially not Anaheim. Canucks-Ducks games are rarely without some form of dramatics and violence. There is no love here. It's not like the Ducks are going to mail this one in. If anything, I expect a huge physical affair with the Ducks initiating a lot of it. This really should be a frustrated bunch after a massive fail of a season where their best forwards: Perry, Getzlaf and Ryan have only scored 58, 54 and 51 points respectively.
Regardless, Lappy and the Canucks need to keep winning to secure top spot in the West and the NHL.
COLD CANUCKS
-David Booth: 0 points in his last 8 games. What the..
-Ryan Kesler: 1 assist in his last 9. Unacceptable.

-Dan Hamhuis: 0 points in his last 5.
-Mason Raymond: 0 points in his last 4.
-Chris Tanev: 0 points in his last 9.
COOKIN' CANUCKS
-Maxim Lapierre: 2 goals and 2 assists in his last 2 games.
-Henrik Sedin: 5 assists in his last 2 games. WOOO!! Good job, Hank. Nice to see you back!

-Marc-Andre Gragnani: 1 goal and 1 assist in his last 2.
-Sami Salo: 1 goal and 1 assist in his last 2 games.
