The Vancouver Canucks are a terrible hockey team that never wins. Sorry, what? They won!

Not everything about the Vancouver Canucks is bad. That is a fact that is easy to forget in times like these.

With every loss, we become more and more desperate. All we can think about is the draft lottery and what could have been in 2011. But, every once in a while, we actually get something to celebrate.

The Vancouver Canucks beat the Dallas Stars 5-4 in overtime at Rogers Arena, after falling behind 1-0, 3-1 and 4-3. In other words, they won another game in which they held the lead for zero seconds. Yay!

So, what are the takeaways from this game? What are the positives and what do they tell us about the future?

Let’s take a look.
