Dropping 3 spots from 2nd to 5th in 2017 draft was probably one of the luckiest thing ever for this franchise.

Philly who finshed 13th last and was gifted the 2nd over pick, selected Nolan Patrick.
Patrick is looking like the biggest bust in the last decade when you consider many used to think he’s the 1st overall pick.

Coach firing night? Coach firing night. Sorry, Stech, your old Nodak boss might be on the chopping block tonight.

Seems like the hockey gods are sick of Bettman and his phony lottery. After all those times they dropped out of the top 3, the Canucks got the best player anyways.

It remains to be seen but I feel like kristoffer Gunnarrson will probably end up the premier player from that draft but that will have to wait

Looking at Philly on paper I find it incredible they arent contending for top end in the East. Yes they are older and yes they need a goaltender but nobody is past their prime and that 3rd/4th line center depth is pretty good, plus they have the Dutch Gretzky

Canucks win this one because our coach killing skills overpower our third string goalie career night skills

I don't mean to be exceedingly negative or anything, but how can any team beating the Canucks be considered an upset? :)

And what is the record for the Canucks over the years playing in the first game back returning from a road trip?

Its not really an upset (with the Canucks ,you take what you can get), but the Flyers lately, are considered a beatable team...No idea, what their all time record is for the first game back.
