While Canucks are tied for points with Coyotes, they still have one more game to play.
Myers said of his team’s performance in the game, “I really like our game tonight. Right from the get-go, we played really simple yet direct hockey. We played fast on the special teams and played direct. We are going to have to realize that these types of games are going to give us success.”
Up next, Vancouver Canucks will host a game against Chicago this Thursday for their first game of the 2-game homestand. As for Flames, they will host a game for Chicago too on Tuesday night.
