Six ways the short-handed Canucks have held the fort on a crucial road trip

New York Times  

The Vancouver Canucks have played a condensed schedule on the road over the past week and have won games consistently. Opportunistic finishing With five goals across its past five games, Vancouver’s power play would appear to be as dangerous as it’s been all season. GO DEEPER How Jake DeBrusk powered Canucks' comeback win in Detroit: 3 takeaways Throughout this five-game trip, Vancouver is converting on nearly 30 percent of its power-play shots on goal, and that level of efficiency — sustainable or not — is helping the club win games and patch up its attack with the man advantage in Miller’s absence. Vancouver is playing low-event hockey and has only generated 86 five-on-five shots on goal across 220 minutes over its past five games, but Canucks players still have 10 goals because they’re converting on nearly 12 percent of their looks. Suter has three five-on-five goals on this road trip and is tied with Elias Pettersson and DeBrusk for the team’s points lead with four in his past five games.
