Sharks vs. Vancouver Canucks Gameday LIVE CHAT Open Thread

[The Q]

Here we go folks. If you've had enough of the Kesler media crap maybe you'd like to drop in and chat about some hockey. Specifically the Canucks game today.

San Jose at Vancouver

Jan 21-4:00 PM ET	Record
SJ	26-13-5 (11-5-3 V)
VAN	28-15-4 (12-6-3 H)

Matchup | Preview

1. Sharks LW Ryane Clowe (nose), RW Martin Havlat (hamstring) and C Tommy Wingels (undisclosed) are not expected to play Saturday.

2. San Jose G Antero Niittymaki was assigned to Worchester of the American Hockey League on a conditioning assignment and to audition for a possible trade.

3. Vancouver captain Henrik Sedin has gone two games in a row without a point - matching a season high.

MY FEARLESS PREDICTION (Sorry my brothers and sisters of Canucks Nation): Sharks 3, Canucks 2.
