Saturday’s game between the Vancouver Canucks and Boston Bruins is one of the most hyped games of the year for Canucks fans.

For one, Vancouver is taking on the top team in the NHL and a club that Canucks fans still have animosity towards for beating them in the Stanley Cup Finals nine years ago.

However, it’s not just the product on the ice that has people excited.

For the third time this season, Saturday’s 50/50 will produce a major jackpot that’s guaranteed to be at least $1 million.

And as you surely know by now, the 50/50 isn’t only done in the stadium and anyone in British Columbia can buy tickets online.

That means someone in BC will be waking up on Sunday more than $500,000 richer, while the Canucks For Kids Fund will also be getting a cheque for at least $500,000.

The two previous major jackpots this year have been won by Ian Campbell on Dec. 10, 2019 ($696,125) and David Leitch on Oct. 9, 2019 ($635,210).

Last season, West Kelowna’s Gordon (Gordy) Schimpf won $706,815 when the jackpot got up to a record-setting $1.4 million on Nov. 27, 2018.
