The Canucks are off to possibly ont of the hottest starts in franchise history. Now, they're the talk of the NHL and the atmosphere around the team is as positive as it's been in a very long time. That sure is nice to see.
After the loss to the Flames, an argument could be made that it's not the case, but regardless, the fact that it's even brought up in a conversation in which the Vancouver based Franchise is involved is nice to hear.
It's definitely a step forward from last year when the whole thing was a fiasco. The Canucks are 12-4-1, only behind the Stanley Cup winning Knights in the Western Conference. Their next rendez vous on Saturday against the Kraken will place them right on track to pursue the WC's first rank.
