CANUCKS (0-0-0) at KRAKEN (0-0-0)

7:00 p.m. PT; SNP

It's the Nucking 3rd game of the season! The whatever pre-season. The coaching 'n cutting season. Already Woo and Breeze are back to toiling in the fields of Abby.

This fledgling cross border rivalry is about as riveting as a stinky day in False Creek Pike Place. After the the stunning loss to the pre-Nucks, expect the pre-Seas will be seething to steal back some preseason points tonight in the Climate Emergency arena.

Projected Rosters

Nucks:

Forwards

• Jake DeBrusk - J.T. Miller - Daniel Sprong
• Danton Heinen - Aatu Raty - Conor Garland
• Phillip Di Giuseppe - Teddy Blueger - Danila Klimovich
• Arshdeep Bains - Tristen Nielsen - Vitali Kravtsov

Big D

• Derek Forbort - Vincent Desharnais
• Carson Soucy - Noah Juulsen

Vancouver should play a couple of defensemen who will make the NHL team, like Derek Forbort, Carson Soucy and Noah Juulsen, while getting a look at other players.

Since this is only the preseason and no one will be watching or commenting, let's not worry about anything until next month.
