Final
Canucks looking to rebound from woeful offensive showing
Feb 27, 2009 - 11:25 AM Tampa Bay (20-29-12) at Vancouver (30-22-8), 10:00 pm ESTVANCOUVER, British Columbia (Ticker) -- The Vancouver Canucks hope a return home can help them regain their scoring touch.
Daniel Sedin and the Canucks will kick off a four-game homestand against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Friday.
Vancouver had a four-game winning streak snapped Tuesday, suffering a 3-0 loss to the Montreal Canadiens. The Canucks have still won eight of their last 10 contests, climbing to fifth place in the Western Conference.
Sedin, who leads the club with 25 goals and 59 points this season, has recorded a point in all six career meetings with the Lightning.
Tampa Bay's three-game road trip through Western Canada got off to a rough start. Cory Murphy scored two goals during Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.
The Lightning, who will visit the Calgary Flames on Sunday, have lost five of their last six contests. Tampa Bay is 3-8-2 over its previous 13 games.
