OK so it's a noon start (which the Canucks are weird about ever since Lou pulled his groin in an early-start road game a hundred years ago) and a road game so I'm betting Delia gets his 2nd start in a row. Finally.

That is what a PVR is for. I have most of the Canuck games on PVR yet, don't know why now but good for looking back to find hidden injuries.
Also good for speeding past dull parts of the game and commercials, seems more and more dull parts.
Basically injury free the Canucks seek hope versus the Jets.
I don't expect much, aim low and avoid disappointment only now disappointment comes with wins too. How screwed up hoping for losses so they can be winners later, but it does give something to watch for.
Winnipeg has lots of guys just coming back last game so there might be a let down this game. They might let the back up play, that happens lots when playing bad teams.
Winnipeg playing for 1rst place in the conference, Vancouver playing for ?

The Canucks are a team that doesnt match up very well against the Rick Bowness led Jets ...The Jets have demonstrated superior puck support, and better effort in both games this season
Ehlers (and Schmidt) is back in the lineup for the Jets..The Canucks are reasonably healthy.
I have to lean toward a Jets win in this one.

The dreaded noon start, which for the Canucks means their 'body clock' is at 10 a.m. Pacific. "Survival' in the first period will be the key to this one. Canucks always seem to start in a funk in the first period of a road-swing, and Winnipeg has been 'Death Valley' for Canuck teams for years.
But they've proven that if they could ever 'bottle up' that second period against the Av's, they can compete with anyone. But who knows which Canuck team will show up?

I wonder if they wake up early and have a couple of shots for breakfast it would help with the time difference.
Kraken take castoffs from NHL teams and in 2 years are better than our over 50 year old franchise
Don’t fear a tear down folks
Don’t disagree but in reality what team do we “match up well” against? Chicago?

The actual answer is any team with a bad or struggling goalie. Kraken are actually a great example of this.

Canucks are playing for each other. That's structure isn't it?
They don't have a team built for structure, too many different types of players and not enough of one's that fit together.
Sooner or later the refs will start calling Petey on some of his holding and interference, he is clever at it.
The game now is so much like beer league hockey without the hitting/contact. Seeing a good hit is like seeing a goal scored now. You see this in the regular season a lot now, that is what makes the playoffs such a different game.
The team is now 9 points out of the second WC spot, the WC spot, is that something to cheer for?
Like Miller stated the other day, all their games are like game seven's. To me that means there is nothing more they can do. They are depending upon "game management"
Some of the Peg's come back players may have a bit of a dip after the last game. Most of the Canucks look like they are debuting for other teams, showing off individual skills or for their next contract.

He’s earned it. Ride him while he’s hot.
I’m not particularly optimistic the rest of the team will show up, given their last two efforts vs the Jets. But dare to dream!
I’m wearing a jersey and the kids are wearing their Christmas Canucks shirts. One of the few times the kids and I can watch together.
