Home town boy gets in the lineup against Minny today. After a disallowed goal by Boeser in OT and 2OT loss U of N. Dakota v. BU yesterday, seems a bit rushed to get him in the lineup today. But yeah, season ticket drive is coming and there has been very little to cheer about this season for the Canucks.
- 4 cases of food poisoning
- 3 cases of the Mumps
- Markstrom injured in meaningless skills competition
- most man games lost due to injury out of every NHL team (334)
