Vancouver Canucks Summary

The Vancouver Canucks are facing a challenging period as they prepare to host the New York Islanders following a tough 6-0 loss to the Edmonton Oilers. This defeat marked a significant low point for the Canucks, who now sit last in the NHL with a record of 16-27-5 and the highest goals against, leading to a minus-50 goal differential, according to Wagners Weekly.

In an effort to turn things around, the Canucks made four roster moves, including calling up Elias Pettersson from the Abbotsford Canucks, as reported by Canucks Army. Additionally, Filip Chytil returned to practice wearing a full-contact jersey for the first time since his injury, signaling hope for his return to the lineup soon.

The Canucks are also dealing with trade rumors, notably regarding Kiefer Sherwood, as they look to reshape their roster amid the ongoing struggles.
