It’s true, the 2022-23 Vancouver Canucks are the first team in NHL history to lose all three of their first three games of a new season while blowing multi-goal leads in each contest.
First, they allowed five unanswered in Edmonton and blew a three goal lead last week on opening night.
Then on Saturday against the Philadelphia Flyers, the Canucks allowed three in a row to let a two goal lead slip away in the first period.
And last night in Washington, the Capitals managed to score four unanswered in the third as the Canucks blew the 4-2 lead they possessed heading into the final frame.
The Canucks will attempt to notch their first win tonight in Columbus after a player’s only meeting following the loss to the Capitals last night. Puck drop is at 4 PM Pacific.
