I would be interested to know what the gross numbers actually are. The Canucks are more playing above their heads right now, there is no doubt about that. No one really had them as a playoff team this year and for good reason, their past two seasons were abysmal. That being said they keep finding ways to win games, against all teams, they have a goals against near the top in the league and are second in goals for.
I guess their pace is unsustainable but I do think that they deserve more credit than just saying that 50 games is a small sample size. Something that they are doing is working.
