The Road Ahead... 11 December Games Remain
The next month will provide the Canucks a little bit of everything. 7 of their next 11 games will be at Rogers Arena. They will be on the road one week before Christmas when they face off against conference foes Minnesota, Dallas, and Chicago.
December has always been a historically good month for the Canucks. It is time for them to take advantage of some home cooking against beatable teams. The Canucks need to have a winning month to stay afloat in the very tough Western Conference.
Until next time, stay classy! -George
