The best-of-seven second-round series is tied 1-1. Game 3 goes Thursday.

When the Vancouver Canucks opened the 2014-15 regular season with a 4-2 win over the Calgary Flames, it's safe to say no one thought the two teams would meet in the first round of the 2015 Stanley Cup playoffs.

Head coach Willie Desjardins played coy after Monday's practice when asked about his starter for Game 1 of Vancouver's first-round series against the Calgary Flames, but all signs point to Eddie Lack getting the nod in Wednesday's opener at Rogers Arena.
