VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Ticker) - The Vancouver Canucks are finally starting to score some goals and wins are following.

The Canucks go for their third straight win when they host the Minnesota Wild on Saturday.

Vancouver's 2.25 goals-per-game average is still ranks only 28th in the league, but the Canucks have been scoring a little more lately. Vancouver has scored 15 goals in its last four games.

Henrik Sedin scored the game-winning goal in Vancouver's 3-1 victory over the Calgary Flames on Thursday. Mattias Ohlund and Brendan Morrison also scored for the Canucks.

The Wild, losers of two straight, conclude their three-game road trip in Vancouver. Todd White scored Minnesota's lone goal in a 3-1 loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday. Minnesota center Wes Walz returned after missing 10 games with a hip injury.
