Command Analysis

Vancouver Canucks

Canada

The Vancouver Canucks were the worst team in the Northern Division last season. The Canucks dropped to the last line of the standings following a long losing streak. In the offseason, goaltender Braden Holtby as well as one of the main defenders, Alexander Edler, have left the club.

The Canucks have already played one preseason game against the NHL newbies Seattle. At first, Vancouver were in the lead, but they failed to maintain the advantage and lost with a score of 3:5.

Calgary Flames

Canada

The Calgary Flames narrowly missed the playoffs last season; they were just 4 points shy of the 4th line. The Flames looked unconvincing in general and scored under 3 goals per game on average.

Most of the key players remained in the squad, however, goaltender Louis Domingue and striker Joakim Nordström have left the Flames. In the first match of the preseason, Calgary went against Edmonton and suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 0:4. The Flames played poorly in defense, and goaltender Daniel Vladar even had to be substituted off in the second period.
