      Lack was 2-0 with a 0.49 GAA

      The Vancouver Canucks (3-0) host the Tampa Bay Lightning (2-1-1) at Rogers Arena tonight. Fake Tigers Jerseys . The Canucks return to action after a 2-0 win in Edmonton last night while the Bolts have not played since a 2-1 loss to New Jersey on Tuesday. Despite a 28-save shutout from Ryan Miller last night, the Canucks will turn to Eddie Lack in goal. Lack was 2-0 with a 0.49 GAA and 98.3% and allowed just one goal in three preseason appearances. The Canucks will make at least one other line-up change tonight with defenseman Ryan Stanton out of the line-up due to a lower body injury suffered in the first period last night. Yannick Weber will draw in as his replacement. The Canucks have also recalled Frank Corrado from Utica. The Canucks top line accounted for both goals (Vrbata & and Daniel Sedin) and six scoring points last night. Through three games, Henrik Sedin (2+4), Daniel Sedin (1+5) and Radim Vrbata (3+2) have accounted for 17 scoring points. The rest of the Canucks forward group has produced eight points. The Canucks dropped both games they played against the Bolts last season falling 4-2 here in Vancouver on New Years Day and 4-3 in Tampa in mid-March. Tonight is Tampa Bays first road game of the season after opening the year with four straight at home. Victor Hedman leads the hockey club with seven points while Steven Stamkos has four points in his first four games. Stamkos scored all three of his goals in the same game -- a 7-1 romp over Montreal on Monday night. Tonight marks just the third NHL game for Stamkos in Vancouver and his first since December 2010. He was with the team last year, but still recovering from his broken leg and did not play at Rogers Arena. In his two previous visits to this building, Stamkos has scored in each game and has totaled three goals and one assist. Former Canuck Jason Garrison returns to town for the first time since being dealt at the draft in June in Philadelphia. He is paired on defense with Matt Carle. 67 behemoth Ben Bishop gets the start in goal for the Bolts. He recorded victories in both games against the Canucks last season. Dan Hamhuis of the Canucks and Eric Brewer of the Lightning are co-owners of the WHL Prince George Cougars. And Tampa forward and former Cougar Brett Connolly, a Campbell River native, took in last nights WHL game at the Pacific Coliseum and watched his younger brother Josh who plays for Kamloops. Detroit Tigers Store . Tony Parker had 33 points and nine assists and San Antonio never trailed in a resounding 116-92 victory over Portland, bullying the younger Trail Blazers in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. Stitched Tigers Jerseys . PETERSBURG, Fla.ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates - Sebastian Vettels move to Ferrari seems a fitting one, bringing together motor sports most prestigious team and the most successful driver in the current era.The pleasant symmetry stops there.The harsh reality is that both Ferrari and Vettel have lost their way and need each other to find a route back to the top.This season, Ferrari failed to win a race for the first time since 1993, while Vettel went without a win for the first time since 2007, his debut F1 season in which he raced only eight times.Some contrast to last year, when Vettel won 13 races. This year he managed just four podiums and finished fifth, 217 points behind F1 champion Lewis Hamilton.I know that there is a mountain of work waiting for me, and that is part of the task that I have chosen, Vettel said. I think if you climb a mountain together, that is a very strong bond, and then ending up successful, that is a fantastic outlook.Patience will clearly be required by both parties.Since Alonsos triumph at the Spanish GP in May, 2013, Ferrari has gone 33 races without a win — a painfully long stretch that has already led to decisive action, with Marco Mattiacci replacing long-time team principal Stefano Domenicali.After five seasons, and three runners-up campaigns, two-time F1 champion Fernando Alonso decided hed had enough. Despite the offer of a new contract until 2019, he left Ferrari and is widely tipped to replace Jenson Button at McLaren.We both wanted to open new cycles, Mattiacci said. With Sebastian we get one of the youngest world champions ever.But if Ferraris problems keeping up with Red Bull during Vettels era were frustrating enough, this year Ferrari has fallen even further behind Mercedes, which easily secured a 1-2 double in both the drivers and constructors championships.Ferrari finished fourth in the constructors championship, more than 100 points behind Williiams. Tigers Jerseys 2020. This gave Ferrari limited bargaining power when it came to persuading Vettel to join.The arguments have to be solid arguments ... the project, the investment. You dont just over-sell, Mattiacci said. I was really impressed with how clever he is — an extremely clever person with great passion for Ferrari.Still, the challenge facing Vettel — who grew up with seven-time champion Michael Schumacher as his idol — is considerable.He was comprehensively beaten by Daniel Ricciardo, his less experienced and less illustrious teammate, who won three races and took five third-place finishes in his first season with Red Bull.Vettel was supposed to be Ricciardos mentor, yet it was the Australian who drove like the senior racer.Vettel has been on the front row of the grid only three times this season — with no pole positions — and qualified in the top four only once in the last seven races of the campaign. Quite some fall for a driver who clocked up 39 career GP wins and 45 pole positions, helping Red Bull to four straight doubles.If you take the overall situation this year, yes, it was strenuous, Vettel said. Facing technical problems all the way through the season didnt make life easy.In a somewhat humiliating end to his Red Bull career as he finished eighth at Sundays Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, starting from last place after both Red Bulls were sent to the back of the grid because of an illegal aerodynamic influence on the front wing flaps.At least Red Bull placed a giant sticker on the garage floor which said Danke Seb! (Thanks Seb!) in recognition of his efforts.We can look back with a huge amount of pride, team principal Christian Horner said. Its not just the experiences you share on track, its outside the cockpit and as not much more than a boy when he arrived, he now leaves us a young man, as a father and he can be incredibly proud of what hes achieved.
