Vancouver Canucks at Anaheim Ducks
· National Hockey LeagueQuinn Hughes and Brock Boeser score big in Canucks' 5-1 rout of Ducks
Jake DeBrusk and Elias Pettersson also scored and Hughes had three assists for the Canucks, who have won six of eight. Kevin Lankinen made 21 saves in Vancouver's sixth consecutive win over the Ducks.
Olen Zellweger scored a power-play goal early in the first period for Anaheim, which has lost seven of nine. Lukas Dostal stopped 31 shots.
Canucks goalie Thatcher Demko took shots from teammates again after the morning skate, and he could return to practice this week. The Southern California native and 2023-24 Vezina Trophy finalist hasn't played this season due to a knee injury incurred late last season.
Ducks: They're still the lowest-scoring team in the NHL, getting fewer than three goals for the eighth time in 12 games this season. Zellweger's goal was only Anaheim's sixth on the power play.
VAN leads series 1-0
