Tie with Preds costly to Canucks Dmen

Vancouver BC
With Brendan Witt already sitting out the game with a lower body injury the team was dealt another couple of blows when Anton Volchenkov and Pavel Kubina made their way to the Canucks dressing room. Both have been evaluated and are out up to a week. Witt is still expected to miss the next game.

Last nights action saw the Canucks and Preds skate to a 4-4 draw. Vancouver got up early scoring 2 goals in the first 8 minutes of action. Mike Johnson would get his first of the night and Mike Sillinger. Nashville would come back with one by Forsberg to make it 2-1 at the end of the first.

Early in the second Richard Park would tie it up. From there Mike Johnson would make it 3-2 for Vancouver. The Preds would score two late goals in the second to go up 4-3at the end of two.

Martin Erat would score midway through the third to tie it and thats how it would end.

Star # 1 Mike Johnson


Star #2 Todd Marchant



Star #3 Andrej Meszaros
