  • Scoring his sixth power play goal of the season, Horvat surpassed Ryan Kesler and Henrik Sedin for 9th most power play goals in franchise history (62).

Schenn becomes revenge for the bubble bashing LV gave us.

Lead the way Luke, JT, O, Lazer, Joshua, Aman, lead us into battle.

Remember: The Puck is Ours.

Hit anybody who dares to touch The Puck.

Separate the man from The Puck.

Hard, clean hits, Stay Out of the Box.

GO CANUCKS GO!

PETEY PACKS A PECK OF PEPPERED PUCKS: 6 GOALS (they can't stop him).

NHL: Can Boudreau cure what ails Canucks' Elias Pettersson?
