Naslund, Canucks set for meeting with Predators

Dec 6, 2007 - 3:03 PM Vancouver (14-10-2) at Nashville (13-10-2) 8:00 pm EST

NASHVILLE, Tennessee (Ticker) -- After a historic night, Markus Naslund will try to keep the Vancouver Canucks rolling when they visit the Nashville Predators on Thursday.

Naslund's assist in Wednesday's 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks gave him 725 career points with the Canucks, passing Trevor Linden as the franchise all-time leader.

Naslund leads Vancouver with 11 goals on the season. The Swedish left wing, who has 24 points on the campaign, has 357 tallies and 435 assists during his 14-year career with the Canucks and Pittsburgh Penguins.

Vancouver netminder Roberto Luongo has yielded just four goals over the previous five games.

Nashville will look for a similar result Thursday that it had the last time it meet Vancouver, winning 3-0 on the strength of a 29-save effort from Dan Ellis.

Ellis is 6-0-0 with a 2.00 goals-against average and .929 save percentage with two shutouts this season.
