First Period
What’s immediately noticeable tonight is the third forward on the forecheck staying higher in the zone. That support has allowed Vancouver defenders to play tighter and defend the red and blue line. I wasn’t able to watch last game but this looks a lot better than the TOR series

Spicy chances when Höglander is on the ice! Horvat goes down hard while tied up#Canucks

Edler takes the penalty, loses his stick, drops for the shot-block. Demko with a big save late in the period!#Canucks

Nils Höglander

Shot attempts were 15-2 Canucks with Olli Juolevi on the ice in the first
— Patrick Johnston (@risingaction) February 14, 2021
Juolevi has been very steady, a number of subtle and smart plays all night. His best game in the NHL so far
— Satiar Shah (@SatiarShah) February 14, 2021
a win they desperately needed. Good for Demko. Not as busy as Markstrom, but couldn’t afford to blink at 1-1. And didn’t.

Cant spell ‘moral victory’ without ‘heavily outshoot the opposition in the first period but end on an Edler penalty’
— Wyatt Arndt (@TheStanchion) February 14, 2021
Alex Edler and stick infractions. Name a better Valentine's Day couple
