The Vancouver Canucks kicked off the preseason with a 3-1 win over the Seattle Kraken.
Preseason games are not typically intense, passionate affairs unless they’re in a hockey romance novel.
The game was chippier than a too-thick salsa, full of crosschecks away from the play, hits after the horn, two fights, and plenty of post-whistle shenanigans. The Canucks and Kraken looked like they were ready to turn their forced regional rivalry into an actual rivalry.Myers, who is already public enemy number one for Kraken fans after questionable hits on Matty Beniers and Oliver Bjorkstrand in the past two seasons, didn’t do his reputation in Seattle any favours on Tuesday night.
“Guys told me I looked like Superman,” said Myers with a chuckle. “I was just trying to grab him, I didn’t want Högs getting into it. I think just because of my size, it looked funny.”
