The Whiteboard: Gritty Road Wins
Jamie and Thomas talk about the Canucks riding a three-game road win streak, capped by a gritty 4–3 victory over Washington. But the injury bug has bitten hard—Chytil, Blueger, and Lekkerimäki all exited early, prompting a flurry of roster moves and cap gymnastics. With just 11 healthy forwards and playoff odds sitting at 57%, the team’s depth and resilience will be tested on this road trip.
