The offseason makeover by Vancouver is already paying big dividends with a winning record. They've scored 23 goals the last six games and the defense is third in the NHL allowing 2.13 goals per game. The Canucks have won two of three on a four-game trek, including a 4-3 win at defending Stanley Cup champion St. Louis and a 3-2 win at the New York Rangers. Detroit has a losing record, riding a four-game skid getting outscored 17-5. The offense is #27 in goals scored, while the defense is #23 in goals allowed. Take Vancouver.
