Vancouver reminds me of Calgary circa 2014/15. No expectations, but they are finding ways to win thanks to an emerging 1C (Horvat), hot shot rookie on the wing (Boeser), secondary scoring from unlikely sources (Dorsett), and adequate to above average goaltending. Not sure if they can keep it up all year but stranger things have happened.

Totally agree. I felt the same way with Vancouver's luck tonite. Badly beaten in possession game but finds way to win, circa Flames 2014-15. Also nothing to lose for them. No expectations much like the Flames 2014-15.
