The Road Ahead... Home Cooking

The next 4 weeks will provide the Canucks will a lot of home cooking.  After they finish up the weekend in southern California, they will spend the next 2 weeks at home with a 6 game home stand.  They will then head back east for 4 games, and will return back home for another 5 games.

Until next time, stay classy! -George
