Today's game against the Oilers brings bad news to the Canucks

The team seems to be suffering from the flu, so it's worth wondering if they will be able to field an NHL team today.

As the flu is spreading, it's questionable whether the team will be able to match up against an overpowered team like the Edmonton Oilers today.

As well as the flu, the team is without defenseman Carson Soucy, who would've been a saucy addition to a defense that hasn't been so great this year.

The team better batten down the hatches, as the Oilers are coming to claim their first victory of the season.
