As if being shut out to the 29th-place Arizona Coyotes isn't bad enough, the Vancouver Canucks did so Thursday in historically bad fashion.
It took Vancouver 28:12 to register its first shot on goal, the longest a team has gone since the NHL started tracking play-by-play in 2003, according to Sportsnet Stats.

Vancouver ultimately amassed 19 shots (to Arizona's 31), as the loss bumped the Canucks out of a wild-card position in the West. Not ideal.
