A stat flying under the radar right now;

Filip Hronek is on a 10 game point streak.

It's the longest point streak by a Canucks defenceman in 34 years. If he picks up a point against the NYI he will be tied for longest all time with Dennis Kearns (76-77) and Jiri Bubla (83-84) pic.twitter.com/jRalxh54xt
