The Vancouver Canucks have struggled to get back on track this season .

The Canucks have played defence well enough, but their goal-scoring is down.

Elias Pettersson is playing well defensively, but his offensive game isn’t firing.

He’s scoring on just 9.8 per cent of his five -on- five shots and finishing at a career-low rate.

Simply put, the Canucks need to figure out why they can’t seem to get more overall scoring chances, and they need to figure it out fast. Last season they scored at a wild rate. It probably wasn’t sustainable. But this season they aren’t even generating chances. This isn’t about regression, this is about actual play. Simply put, the Canucks need more creativity from Pettersson and more finishing from Miller . [email protected].
