How did the Vancouver Canucks get their mascot?

I have no idea. Sorry dude.

I take it you mean the Orca whale that is displayed on their jerseys. The Orca whale

isn't a " Canuck " symbol but was introduced after " Orca Bay Sports/Enterprises " assumed ownership of the Vancouver Canucks several years ago.

What is the average number of shut outs in the nhl playoffs per game?

The averages shots on goal per NHL game is around 15-20. It all depends on the defense and how much the forwards back check. The overall skill on the team also determines how many shots on net. If its a worst team, there is more shots on net, the the team is a really good team, their is less shots on net.

With the 2005 rule changes, the shots on goal have gone up a bit with the new average around 25 to 30 and in some cases over 40 per game.

Average number of shots in an NHL game has changed very little since the late 1960s, when this statistic was first collected during the games. Average number has been, and still is, almost exactly 30.

On NHL.com, the stats show an Avg. of 30 shots/game during the 2009-2010 season. Highest average was 34.1 by the Chicago Blackhawks and the lowest average was 27.6 by the Minnesota Wild. (Note: Regular season totals only.)

Who has the highest career plus-minus in the NHL playoffs?

The record holder is Robert Stewart, according to NHL.com's stats database. He achieved a whopping -260 in only 575 games (from 1971 to 1980). However, note that it appears that before the early 1970's, the +/- stats were not tracked, so its possible that someone was even worst but we'll never know.

In the NHL playoffs does the better record get home advantage?

I think that it is, only if the away team is from a distance like Carolina vs Boston because lets face it, who wants to go up to watch the game. Only the avid fans will travel but there wont be as many as the home town team. Big home crowd = noise for home team and visa versa.
