Canucks Game 10 vs. Sharks: Lineups, Notes, & How to Watch

The Vancouver Canucks look to bounce back from Wednesday's brutal 6-0 loss to New Jersey with a soft matchup, on paper, Saturday night with the San Jose Sharks at 7 p.m. It is worth noting, however, that the lowly Sharks are suddenly winners of three straight games, while the Canucks are losers of two straight. This will be the first of four games between these two teams this season.

The Canucks have been flat-out dominant against the Sharks, which can mostly be attributed to the Sharks' full-fledged rebuild. In the last 10 meetings with the Sharks, the Canucks are a whopping 9-1-0, including a 4-1-0 record in the last five meetings. Elias Pettersson, who has struggled to get going to start the 2024-25 season, has 20 points in 19 career games against the Sharks.
