Blues - prob lose devils - win rangers - who knows isles - prob win if we lose to rangers, lose if we beat rangers pens - win sabres - prob lose somehow bjs - win 4 wins, 3 losses - not bad Well you got the first one right. I thought this would be a hard one too. The Blues are in a coach bump rn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will not be tired and has no leg. They will have some leg to combat seeing that it is shorter flights in between games than say, Vancouver to Edmonton trip. No ridicious out of the way trip unlike February trip starting in Carolina, Boston, Detroit, Washington and Chicago. This is more ridiculous than this 7 games trip, imho. Length is long but not taxing too much of air miles Thats a good point. Maybe they will have less jet legs (i know its jet lag) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGuardian Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 So the Canucks are in a 7 games playoff series. Games played pretty much every other night Travel. This road trip is actually easier because the intensity level is much, much lower. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not 12? Too greedy. Anything is possible with this group though. They can do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 My hope was .500 for the trip, if you can hold that level through the tough times against top teams and feast on the lesser teams and at home, you still end up in a good spot at the end of the season. Great start and we should be able to get at least 3 points from the next four games. More than that is just gravy. That game last night was just great skilled hockey from both teams. Similar styles of play, lots of game breaking talent, two high end goalies. Many NHL games in Jan/Feb are honestly hard to watch… but I think this one was a treat for any fan of the game. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldFaithfulcap Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Honestly the feb roadtrip is the real hell. Lots of miles and the timezones for the back to backs. I'll be at the caps game but brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksJay Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I predicted a win against NJ and another good showing in NYR. This team can run with any team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Hronek Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 My guess is that the Canucks will pull a stinker against one of Buffalo or Columbus and will lose one of these games. Aside from that however, it goes without saying that this has been an outstanding road trip so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
