Last night the Canucks improved to 3-0-1 with a 3-0 win over the struggling Kings last night. I don't care if its early, the Canucks are off to a an impressive start and that continued last night in big thanks to Ryan Miller who recorded his first shutout of the year.
Yesterday was a good day for me, I enjoyed both elimination baseball playoff games last night and was also able to swing by my high school for the football practice.
Unfortunately on the baseball side, the Mets, are going to a Game 5 at Dodger Stadium tomorrow evening. That is another story all together, but I was thinking about Game 5 most of the time during the hockey game.
The Canucks were able to win last night the same way they won in Anaheim, which was great goaltending and timely scoring.
Not sure if it is a trend or a fluke but the Canucks are getting balanced scoring from everybody in the lineup, out of the 20 skaters that have dressed for the Canucks this year, a total of 17 have recorded points.
So far so good for Vancouver. They seem like a much faster team this year and that has been benificial so far as they are looking like they can score at any point of the game given the potential that some of our younger players have.
Defensively the Canucks were also outstanding. Players like Milan Lucic and Marion Gabriok have always hunted the Canucks the last several years and the Kings top players looked terrible.
It was good to see Adam Cracknell score his second goal in as many games last night. He had went 49 games without scoring a goal.
