The fabled Vancouver Canucks dog race returned to the ice surface at Rogers Arena during the second intermission of Saturday&#8217;s game against the Anaheim Ducks.

Six dogs belonging to various members of the Canucks were enlisted to try and run the length of the ice as fast as canine-ly possible:
<ul>
<li>Delilah Demko</li>
<li>Gus Horvat</li>
<li>Pippa Poolman</li>
<li>Sasha Motte</li>
<li>Coolie Boeser</li>
<li>Milo Boeser</li>
</ul>

The six furry friends lined up at one end of the rink and darted off toward the other side when given the &#8220;go&#8221; signal.
Delilah Demko got off to the best start but inexplicably stopped at the near-side blue line, clearing the way for the Boeser duo to charge ahead. Milo and Coolie respectively finished first and second in the race.
