Coach Alain Vigneault wants everyone to give Marco Sturm a chance to fit in with the Canucks. Sturm is one of many Vancouver forwards off to a slow start as he has only one shot on net in the first four games. "I think with Marco, we have to be fair to him," Vigneault said. "He is coming into a new environment and he had been injury-plagued the last couple years. He did go through three teams last year, so he is basically on his fourth team in a year. What we have to do right now is work with him. He's healthy finally, now it's a matter of it takes a little bit of time to get your conditioning to where it should be, your timing to where it should be, your awareness on the ice, to be able to go into an area where you had success before and be confident that you are going to make the right play at the right time." Stay tuned.
