VANCOUVER – February 22nd,2022

The Vancouver Canucks played their last makeup game of the “Olympic break” last night with a 5-2 win over the Seattle Kraken. It was a good game for the Canucks as everyone played exceptional from the top players down. Last Saturday was an embarrassing loss for the Canucks at the hands of the Anaheim Ducks so this Seattle game was a big one, a must win.

The Canucks wrap up a 3-game home stand on Thursday when they play the Calgary Flames. After this homestand they go on the road for 4 games when they go play the New Jersey Devils, New York Rangers and Islanders and finally the Toronto Maple Leafs. After that road trip however, the Canucks come back for a long 7 games at home over a 2-week period.

During a game against the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday night, February 19^th, defensemen Kyle Burroughs was injured on a hit from behind into the boards by a Ducks forward. Burroughs seemed to be favoring his rib area during the play and after the game it was leaked that Burroughs might have fractured or even broken a couple of his ribs. Burroughs was also seen wearing a shoulder brace the following day so there’s speculation within the media that it could be both a shoulder and rib injury which would most likely cost the defensemen the rest of this season.

In other positive news the Canucks returned to full capacity on their home games on Saturday against the Ducks and will continue to do so until further notice. Most of the Canucks remaining games will also be played at home.
