Startling:
In March 1982, the Canucks met the Jets three games in a row, winning all three.

Double Header Data

One of the NHL's "new" concepts for 2005-06 was the "double-header". Two teams meet in back-to-back games in the same city (as opposed to the home-and-home series). While this is common in the playoffs, it is rare in the regular season. However, the concept was originally used as a cost-saving mesaure by the league in the 1980's. Prior to the 2005-06 season, the Canucks were involved in 14 double-headers. The "double-header" concept did not continue after 2005-06.

Notes
* The Canucks were originially scheduled to host the Flyers on December 12, 1975, but the game was postponed because of a snow storm. When Philadelphia returned for their scheduled meeting in February, they played both games.

Stats and records up to the end of the 2015-16 season. Basically, this means I checked the schedule and they didn't play a double-header in 2015-16.
