There's not much to say for the game tonight. The Avs have one loss the Canucks have seven. There's a reason why. Injuries are one thing but the Avs are playing like a team and making things happen.
For the Canucks he only thing happening is injuries. All teams get them but the
more concerning issues is that the injuries now only affect the offense. The defense has all but let down the team with recent play. They haven't bee bad but guys like Edler and Bieksa need to step it up and bring way more to the ice. With Salo back this team is going to have to get it done from the blue line.
Luongo may be back tonight but I expect Raycroft in. Rushing Lou back is not a good idea and he needs to be on good shape with no chance of re-injury. I don't know what kind of performance we see tonight but we need more than last game.
Frankly this should be a tough game and too tough for me to call.
Enjoy the game!
