The Canucks are off to a hot start this season. While the team has lost two in a row, it's not something that will likely last. Vancouver has started the season with a 12-5-1 record, good enough for second place in the Pacific Division.
Not only will the Sharks have to contend with all that scoring, but there's also Thatcher Demko to consider. The goaltender has a 2.22 goals against average (seventh in the league) and a .926 save percentage (tied for eighth in the league).
"They're professionals [and] they've got good players," said Canucks Head Coach Rick Tocchet told NHL.com's Chris Faber. "I don't care what anybody says, that kind of game is an anomaly...So, yeah, we're not taking these guys lightly at all, trust me."
The good news for Sharks fans is the team is in a better place tonight than their previous meeting with the Canucks.
