Canuck
Comebacks
It's happened many times
in Canuck history. The team trails by a couple of goals
(or more) but fights back valiantly to earn a point or
two in the standings. They have earned a
"comeback". According to my statistical
definition, a Canuck comeback is any game where Vancouver
trails by two or more goals, then come back to earn at
least a point.
The first report lists all
the games where the Canucks have come back from at least
a three goal deficit, sorted by size of the comeback. The
top five comebacks per team are also listed.
The Canucks had three
comebacks during 2015-16:
On November 8, 2015, they trailed New Jersey 3-1 in the
second period, then lost 4-3 in overtime.
On January 11, 2016, they trailed Florida 2-0 in the
second period, but won 3-2 in overtime.
On March 9, 2016 they trailed Arizona 2-0 in the second
period, but won 3-2 in overtime.

Column Headings
Down by - number of goals the Canucks trailed by
Result - Win (including overtime and
shootout), Tie, OTL
(overtime loss if Canucks got a point), or SOL (shootout
loss)
Date - date the game was played
H/A - Home, Away or Neutral Site
Vs. - Team the Canucks were playing (using the standard
team codes)
Down - Score when the comeback began
Until - Time of the goal when the comeback began
Final - Final score in the game
Notes
The Down/Until columns are based on when the comeback
"began". For example, if the Kings are leading
4-1, the comeback does not begin until the Canucks make
it 4-2. The time of the 4-2 goal would be listed in the
"Until" column.
Only one comeback per game
is listed, although several can occur during the game. If
the Canucks trail 2-0, 3-1 and 4-2 and finish the game
tied at four, only the 4-2 comeback is listed (as it
occurred last). If the Canucks trail 4-0, 4-1 and 4-2,
only the 4-0 comeback is listed (as it was the biggest
deficit the Canucks overcame).
The Canucks have had at
least one comeback against every NHL team they have
