From patersonjeff, Canucks vs Lightning Gameday Preview. MORE:
TAMPA – Two teams on seven-game win streaks are on a collision course tonight when the Vancouver Canucks face-off against the Tampa Bay Lightning at Amalie Arena. These are the longest active win streaks in the National Hockey League. According to the NHL Communications Department, it’s just the second time in league history that two teams on win streaks of seven have gone head to head.
The Canucks will go with the same 18 skaters they have used for the past five games. That means Jordie Benn and Zack MacEwen will be the healthy scratches tonight. Injured forwards Brandon Sutter and Micheal Ferland are not with the team to start the road trip. Starting tonight, the Canucks play 10 of their next 13 games on the road and six of their next 12 in the Eastern time zone. Between now and March 1st, the team will play 10 of its next 23 games in the East on three separate road trips. The Canucks are 9-10-1 in their first 20 road games this season.
