As the Vancouver Canucks are set to drop the puck against the Utah Hockey Club to kick off their short 2 game road trip, they are not making many changes to their lines.
The Vancouver Canucks this season have been best described as consistently inconsistent.
The Canucks were able to lay a beat down on the Florida Panthers a week ago where Kevin Lankinen secured the shutout. Then in the very next game, the Nucks got embarrassed by the Boston Bruins.
As they have done all season long, Vancouver rebounded, keeping Nathan MacKinnon in check, Kiefer Sherwood notching his first career hat-trick and Thatcher Demko nearly securing the shutout, but ultimately fell short with less than a minute left in the contest.
Head coach Rick Tocchet talked about getting the core pieces of the team back from their respective issues, where he believes will be a major contributing factor to gaining back that consistently.
"I think getting guys like Demmer back, Millsy back, they'll strengthen the leadership group," said Tocchet after Monday's game. "It'll kind of settle everybody down. These guys are a resilient group. Very rarely have we put a bunch of stinkers together."
Vancouver Canucks Projected Lineup Against the Utah Hockey Club
Without morning skate being optional, it is hard to confirm what exactly the lines will be, but after their masterful game against the Avs, you can almost guarantee Rick Tocchet will be rolling with the same lines tonight.
