Canucks Game Day: Quick turnaround down in San Jose​

The Canucks follow up Wednesday’s home game against Roberto Luongo’s visiting Florida Panthers with a back-to-back contest tonight in San Jose against the Sharks. The game starts at 7:30 p.m. (TV: SNETP; Radio: SNET 650 AM):

The Big Matchup

Jake Virtanen vs. history

Virtanen scored a fantastic end-to-end goal last time these squads faced each other just before Christmas, a 5-4 OT loss. He also helped set up a Brendan Gaunce goal. It was one of his best games of the season.

This gonna be UGLY

7-1 Sharks our goal by Boucher

 

[rune74]

4 - 2 win by the canucks, Beoser(ES), Virtanen, Daniel and Vanek with goals.

I'm an optimist

 

[Canuckle1970]

I wonder who's in goal tonight. I hope it's Nilsson, based on last night's play.

 

[David Bruce Banner]

I fully expect the re-upping of Benning to trigger a long losing streak.

5-2 Sharks

Boucher and MDZ

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

I'm expecting a better effort than last night..I think the game will go into OT.

 

[PG Canuck]

17-1 sharks

 

[iceburg]

17-1 sharks

Actually, that would be kinda fun to watch. Historic even...

Goldobin -17

 

[iceburg]

Couldn't be a whole lot worse.

 

[Zippgunn]

I wonder who's in goal tonight. I hope it's Nilsson, based on last night's play.

The second of back to back games in a home and away series? You bet he plays, he always gets these starts...

 

[M2Beezy]

Goldobin -17

Hansen -1 somehow tho

 

[wonton15]

Sooo is Holm ever going to get a shot over Pouliot?

 

[2011 still hurts]

10-0 Sharks hopefully

 

[Eddy Punch Clock]

I wonder who's in goal tonight. I hope it's Nilsson, based on last night's play.

I would think that with it being back to back games that Nilsson was already penciled in for this one.

 

[tantalum]

Already time for anther loss? So be it.

I wonder what Shark(s) makes Real Gud his bitch tonight a la McCann.

Seriously the Sharks are better and they should win if the don’t overlook the competition.

 

[VanJack]

Not sure how the Sharks are doing it.....not really a fearsome lineup with Jumbo Joe and Marleau gone....but for the Canucks it'll all come down to goaltending again, whoever plays. If the guy in the Canucks crease is the 'second-best' goalie on the ice tonight, they don't stand much of a chance playing a back-to-back with travel in between.

Hopefully Boeser can pot a couple and the Canucks continue their downward spiral to enhance their lottery ticket odds in the Rasmus Dahlin sweepstakes.

 

[Grantham]

Last game was just about perfect in my books. Boeser and Horvat score...close game...we lose in regulation

More of the same please!

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Would like to see Goldobin in for Dowd, and Holm in for Pouliot.

I would also love to see Virtanen get some 2nd unit PP duty as a net front presence. Blows my mind that we haven't used one or our "top offensive prospects" in a scoring role.

I didn't think pouliot was bad last night to be honest.

Also, did anyone notice Benning did not list Virtanen when talking about young players who are the line up? He said we don't have many...stetcher, beoser, pouliot

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Got half my wish...Goldy in...for Baertschi? What?

And Biega in for Hutton. FFS.

 

[Kryten]

Got half my wish...Goldy in...for Baertschi? What?

And Biega in for Hutton. FFS.

Did Baertschi get hurt last game? I missed most of it

 

[Foundational Player]

Got half my wish...Goldy in...for Baertschi? What?

And Biega in for Hutton. FFS.

Green loves his bulldog.

 

[Canuckle1970]

I like Biega being in, but I wish it didn't have to be at Hutton's expense.

 

[Black Noise]

Rebuild is going great I see
