With the Vancouver Canucks fighting for their playoff lives this afternoon against Connor Hellebuyck and the powerhouse Winnipeg Jets, do not expect to see any big line changes announced by head coach Rick Tocchet.

Every single game for the Canucks is a do or die, and after falling 7-6 to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Friday in the tight shoutout, Hockey analytics site MoneyPuck now has them sitting with just a 15.5% chance at getting the last would card spot in the west.
With only 9 games remaining and tough schedule ahead, it feels that the chances of them making it is insurmountable, especially with a hard upcoming schedule.

Vancouver Canucks lineup vs the Winnipeg Jets

Basically, everything needs to go their way for them to have chance, and the only thing they can do is hope other teams lose and they win every remaining matchup..
The Canucks and Jets are playing an early game on Sunday which means that Vancouver did not hold morning skate to give any inclination of changes in the lineup.
After scoring 6 goals and offensively having a great game against the Blue Jackets, do not be surprised if Rick Tocchet roles the same 4 lines and d-pairings today.
Defensive Pairing 1: Quinn Hughes -- Filip Hronek.
Defensive Pairing 2: Marcus Pettersson -- Tyler Myers.
Defensive Pairing 3: Derek Forbort -- Elias Pettersson.
Starting Netminder: Thatcher Demko.
Due to Kevin Lankinen coming off a pretty rough start, it is expected that Thatcher Demko will be taking back over the starting goalie duties this afternoon.
