Next Friday night NHL calendar will bring a very interesting challenge for Vancouver Canucks, as they’ll face Minnesota Wild at 09:00 pm CST in a must-win game. That obligation to win comes from the fact that the Canucks are currently out of the playoffs’ spots, but just 1 point behind the qualification mark.
However, it must be noted that Vancouver Canucks’ offensive line is the third worst in the Pacific Division with 168 scored goals throughout the season, not being surprising at all that they’ve only been able to win 1 out of their last 5 games in regulation time. In this matter, most of the issue comes from the lack of effectiveness, as some of the top shooters like Conor Garland, Kiefer Sherwood and Quinn Hughes were unable to score.
Meanwhile, Minnesota Wild took advantage of facing very irregular teams like Boston Bruins and Seattle Kraken to build some momentum with 2 victories in a row. Nevertheless, they also remark as one of the less productive offensive lines in the Western Conference with 177 goals scored, it being very concerning for them that Kirill Kaprizov hasn’t returned yet to the team due to a lower body injury.
