Abby Canucks Morning Skate At Bojangles Coliseum Ahead Of Game 6

The Abbotsford Canucks hit the ice Monday morning for skate in preparation for Game 6 of the Calder Cup Finals against the Charlotte Checkers.

It was like most morning skates, but sitting in the bowl you could hear the pre-skate cheers from the team before they took the ice. Abby is working hard, and the vibes are high – just like the excessive heat, with temperatures expected to reach as high as 36 degrees in Charlotte.

Artūrs Šilovs and Nikita Tolopilo got first tracks on the fresh sheet, and Danila Klimovich and Jonathan Lekkerimäki were the first of the skaters. The group skated laps, got shots on net, and did work from the circle.

The Canucks have a 3-2 lead in the series and will be looking to close out tonight, with puck drop at 4:00 p.m. PT.
