Remember at the start of the season, when we thought the Avs were going to score 300+ goals this year, and the lowly Canucks would be lucky to hit 200? Yeah, funny how things work out, right? The Canucks, with 11 goals from reclamation project Kyle Wellwood, have 82 goals in 27 games - 15 more than our beloved Avs.
Vancouver so far is the surprise of the division, currently sitting in first. I don't have to tell you where the Avs are sitting.
In happier news, the Canucks are without Roberto Luongo. Vancouver is expected to start some guy named Cory Schneider (not to be confused with this guy or even this guy). I'm not going to lie, I've never heard of him - I guess he got his career win on Friday against the Wild. Sounds like we're getting set up for failure...
