April 15, 2011 Rob 0 Comments Game Preview

Before every Canucks playoff game, Canuckz.com will be looking back at the previous game and provide a preview of the upcoming game.

There has been a lot of nonsense spewing from the airwaves of the Team 1040 radio station in the last few days.

Believe it or not, the Canucks are now 75% complete their preseason schedule. That means some tough decisions need to be made by Alain Vigneault and the Canucks coaching staff, and they need to be made soon. There are only two games left before a long list of players on the bubble will find out where they will start the 2010-11 season. That list includes most notably Cody Hodgson, Brendan Morrison and Jeff Tambellini.
