Snapshot of the Canucks As Preseason Nears
Last season, Vancouver missed the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the second consecutive year.
Of course, their offensive productivity, or lack thereof, was a major factor in their elimination.
By the end of their campaign, they were riding a 25-49 overall record, placing them last in their division.
The Canucks’ first preseason clash is against the Kraken on Saturday, Sept. 19 at 9 p.m. ET.
Held at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Vancouver will start its preseason on the road. They will then head to Scotiabank Saddledome on Tuesday, Sept. 22, to take on the Calgary Flames at 9 p.m. ET.
From there, it will be time for the Canucks’ Fan Fest at Rogers Arena and for their home opener against the Oilers.
