Make it or Break it Week for Canucks
Vancouver (CKNW/AM980)

3/18/2013

Look for Cory Schneider to get the start tonight for the Vancouver Canucks against Minnesota after Roberto Luongo took the loss Saturday versus Detroit.

 Neither goalie has been very reliable lately.  Schneider is winless in his last three starts.

 Since losing to the Canucks 4-1 back on Feb 7th, the Wild have reeled off 11 wins in their last 16 games, including four of their last five.

 By comparison, the Canucks have won just 5 of their past 15 games and as a result, first place in the Northwest Division is up for grabs.

 Minnesota enters tonight's game on top.  The Canucks are seventh.

 David Booth injured his ankle in Saturday's loss to the Red Wings and is scheduled for an MRI today.  There are fears he could be out of the lineup for a while.

 It’s a busy week ahead for the Canucks with five games in the next seven days:

 Monday vs Minnesota; Tuesday vs St. Louis; Thursday @ Phoneix; Saturday @ Los Angeles; Sunday @ Denver.
