It's becoming a common sentence on here, but the Canucks are looking to remain undefeated in the pre-season as they host the Anaheim Ducks. Much like last night against the Sharks, on paper Vancouver looks overmatched, but again like last night, they will look to somehow pull off the victory. The Sedins are back in the lineup and will have Mikael Samuelsson on the right wing. Andrew Raycroft will go the distance in net for the Canucks, while youngsters Michael Grabner and Cody Hodgson (normally a center) will flank the wings beside Kyle Wellwood in an attempt to jumpstart their play. Vancouver's lineup is as follows:
Sedin - Sedin - Samuelsson
Grabner - Wellwood - Hodgson
Rypien - Bliznak - Parrish
Glass - Johnson - Pope
Mitchell - Salo
Rome - O'Brien
Ehrhoff - Funk
Raycroft
The Ducks will ice all their big guns save for Joffrey Lupul who is nursing a sore back. Their top 2 lines will be as followed:
Ryan - Getzlaf - Perry
Ebbett - Koivu - Selanne
At this point I don't know the rest of their roster but will update it if I can find anything before I go to work.
