The Vancouver Canucks and New York Rangers got back to their winning ways Wednesday night. Vancouver took down the Edmonton Oilers 5-4, while New York shutout the Philadelphia Flyers 2-0. The league gets back to a full slate of games today and through the weekend. Here’s a few tidbits to keep in mind heading into tonight’s action.

- In a weird story, Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Jack Johnson has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and claims that his parents are responsible for helping lead him “financially astray.” His parents bought a house in Manhattan Beach, California, and also borrowed $15 million of Johnson’s earnings.
