Preview
Vancouver at Calgary

One step forward, one step back. Both the Calgary Flames and the Vancouver Canucks have been experiencing that feeling all season.

POWER PLAY PROWESS

Netting 24 power play goals on 76 opportunities in their last 22 games played, including two tallies on the man-advantage on Dec. 7 at SJS, the Canucks' power play ranks first in the NHL since Oct. 24, producing at a rate of 31.6%.

The Edmonton Oilers were fourth, the Seattle Kraken second after Monday night and the Canucks maintain the hope that eight wins in their last 12 games isn’t just a mirage.
