Less than a month remains until the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs kick off, and the race for postseason berths is heating up. On Monday night, the Vancouver Canucks have the chance to secure the first spot.
According to an update from the National Hockey League's website, the Western Conference leaders, the Vancouver Canucks, can clinch a playoff spot if certain scenarios unfold:
- Vancouver secures a win against the Los Angeles Kings, coupled with a loss for the St. Louis Blues against the Vegas Golden Knights.
OR
-Vancouver earns at least one point against Los Angeles, while St. Louis falls to Vegas in regulation.
OR
-Vancouver earns at least one point against Los Angeles, while St. Louis falls to Vegas in regulation.
"The League-leading Canucks (45-18-8, 98 points) will clinch a berth in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs if they defeat the Kings (37-22-11, 85 points) in any fashion AND the Blues (38-30-3, 79 points) lose to the Golden Knights (38-25-7, 83 points) in any fashion OR if Vancouver gets one point against Los Angeles AND St. Louis loses to Vegas in regulation." The NHL said.
The Canucks have defied expectations this season, surprising many in the hockey world. While improvement was anticipated, leading the Western Conference and the NHL standings was beyond anyone's predictions.
Key players like Elias Pettersson, J.T. Miller, Quinn Hughes, Brock Boeser, and Thatcher Demko have been instrumental in the Canucks' success. With their depth and talent, a deep playoff run this spring is certainly within reach.
