After losing 7 straight, the Canucks have won two of their last 3 games. Milestones were hit, first goals were scored, and one player had a not-so-nice suit and tie combo.
1. Daniel Sedin
For hitting the 1,300 games played milestone!
2. Henrik Sedin
For hitting a milestone of his own!
Whatta legend 🙌
3. Ashton Sautner
He made a childhood dream come true by playing his first NHL game in Dallas. He also flashed a smile for the cameras:
4. Brendan Gaunce
He turned 24 yesterday!

5. Jacob Markstrom
He didn’t have to use his go-to cliches after his win vs. Dallas and Chicago:
Markstrom post game prediction “ I was just bad, I was off. I wasn't good enough. Their goalie played better than I did.”
6. Alex Edler
He scored twice vs Chicago!
Smiling Alex Edler is a Sedin!
7. Bo Horvat
He hit the 20-goal mark for the second year in a row:
22-year old Bo Horvat has hit 20 goals for a 2nd straight season (doing it in just 56 games), making him the 7th player on this all-time @Canucks list
8. Tyler Motte
He finally scored his first as a Canuck:
9. Sam Gagner
He finally scored after a long goalless drought, and it also happened to be his 150th career goal:
HENRIK SEDIN SENDS AN UNREAL PASS TO SAM GAGNER WHO BRINGS THE CANUCKS WITHIN 1!
10. Derrick Pouliot
For sticking up for Brendan Leipsic and fighting Andreas Martinsen:

11. Troy Stecher
He had two assists this week and also celebrated National Puppy Day with Phoebe:

12. Michael Del Zotto
He also had two assists, but he doesn’t have a dog so he’s ranked lower than Stecher.
13. Jake Virtanen
He scored one goal this week, albeit a flukey one:
14. Nic Dowd
He also scored this week:
15. Brandon Sutter
Like Virtanen, he also scored a flukey goal:
Sutter sneaks it in and the #Canucks are on the board 🚨
16. Alex Biega
He had one assist this week, but he hasn’t scored a goal in a very, very long time.
17. Jussi Jokinen
He was a part of this crazy stat:
Dowd-Boucher-Jokinen = 2 goals & 2 assists Benn-Seguin-Radulov = 0
18. Darren Archibald
This could’ve been bad…
19. Anders Nilsson
Because of this unfortunate goal:
20. Reid Boucher
Because of this unfortunate suit and tie combo:
21. Loui Eriksson, Sven Baertschi, Erik Gudbranson, Ben Hutton, Markus Granlund
They’re injured.
22. Chris Tanev
He can’t catch a break.
BREAKING: Chris Tanev out for the rest of his career as he maxed out the total number of injuries an NHL player can have
Can’t believe Tanev was able to come back into the game Friday because I’m sure I heard him say, “I think my knee cap is out” when he left the ice. #canucks
