Rink Wide: Vancouver

The center of the hockey universe came to Vancouver tonight, as the Maple Leafs faced off against the Canucks. There were 10 All Stars in the game tonight, but it was the bottom 6 from Vancouver that was running the show, with 2 goals each from Nils Hoglander and Connor Garland. Demko did his part and stopped 42 of 46 to give them a chance. The power play found it's legs again, to help put them over the edge for a 6-4 win.

Well, it wasn't the most 'high event hockey', but the Canucks took care of what matters and put down the Coyotes 2-1. Kuzmenko spent the 3rd period on the bench again... while Dakota Joshua continued his career season with another game winning goal. Big Nikki Z took care of business and handily won a fight when Arizona started to take runs at some of the Canucks players. Demko held it down again, allowing only 1 goal over his last 2 games.

After much travel difficulty, the Canucks were finally in Columbus to close out their long road trip. Vancouver came out flying, but the lack of rest caught up to them in the end. Casey DeSmith faced 45 shots on goal and did his best to hold the Jackets off... when it was all said and done, Columbus came out on top in the shootout 4-3.

The Canucks made their way through the snow storm in Buffalo as they faced their expansion cousins, the Sabres. JT Miller was physical all game and had to answer the bell for a big hit on Rasmus Dahlin, but that was all for the Lotto Line, as Sam Lafferty scored the lone goal of the night, by either team, as Thatcher Demko backstopped the team to a 1-0 win, with his 4th shutout of the season.

The Canucks took Manhattan last night and found themselves on Long Island today to face the Islanders to complete the NY back to back. It was another rematch against our former captain Bo Horvat and yet another night where nobody could stop Petey and the Lotto Line! EP40 and Co. put up another 5 goals and Casey DeSmith put up another solid performance to take the Isles 5-2 to complete the back to back sweep.

The Canucks entered Madison Square Garden tonight for a heavyweight bout against the Rangers. In short, the Lotto Line did it again, putting up 8 more points and providing all the offense and energy that you'd expect from that power trio. Demko faced a barrage of 42 shots and was up to the task, allowing only 3 goals throughout the onslaught.

The Canucks took a trip to New Jersey for chapter 2 of Lollapa-Hughes-a, and with Jack out of the Devils lineup, Quinn looked to take advantage. The Canucks captain delivered with 3 points and a very dominant first 45 mins, fueled further by the re-uniting of the Lotto Line (Boeser, Petey, Miller), the big guns contributed to the majority of the Canucks offense on this night. Demko started strong, but he speed wobbled with the rest of the team for a few mins in the 3rd period that almost allowed the Devils to comeback in this one, but nope... the Demko hung on to get his 100th career win.

The Canucks hit the road to kick off a 7 game road trip against the St Louis Blues. The ever-present 3rd line of Joshua, Blueger and Garland opened up the scoring early on, but the Canucks spent the remainder of the game looking flat and ultimately lost 2-1. Thatcher Demko played great, as per usual, but the Canucks just couldn't find the juice tonight.

The Canucks hoped to start 2024 better than they finished 2023 against the Senators in this first game back in the New Year. Vancouver stormed out for 5 goals against our nations capital in the first period, then coasted their way to a 6-3 final. Petey was all over the both ends of the ice for his best game in a long time and Pius Suter scored a couple of goals, including one which was 'very Bieksa'...
