The Canuck Way took to Twitter to find out which players on the Vancouver Canucks the fans are most excited to watch in the playoffs. The results are in.

With the NHL and NHLPA agreeing on the date of July 10th to open training camp for the 2020 playoffs, the Vancouver Canucks are officially one step closer to returning to the ice and battling for the Stanley Cup. Of course, all of this comes with the notion that all safety requirements are met 100% medically. Only then will the NHL be given the green light to return to play.

Nonetheless, fans have a date to look forward to, and that is something to be very excited about. Sports fanatics are growing restless, and the need to quench the thirst of hockey grows with each passing day. Still, it’s hard to believe that it’s already been three months since the pause of the National Hockey League, but even crazier to think that passionate hockey fans have to wait at least another month before things get going again.

To put it this way, even though progress is being made, there is still a lot of waiting to be done before any sort of hockey makes a comeback. Fans are dying for content, so what do we talk about in the meantime? With something finally feeling partially concrete in the hockey world, The Canuck Way decided to turn to their Twitter followers and ask the fans some questions about the upcoming series versus the Minnesota Wild.
