Power play coming alive for Canucks as they face Canadiens

The Montreal Canadiens and the host Vancouver Canucks return to the ice Thursday for the middle game of a three-game series that wraps up Saturday.

The Canucks head into the matchup starting to feel better about their power play. Vancouver's extra-man unit went into the Wednesday home game against the Canadiens 0-for-15 but managed three goals on six tries, a big part of the Canucks' 6-5 shootout victory.

"We know that we can be difference-makers each and every night," said Vancouver winger Brock Boeser, who had two goals, one on the power play, and added an assist.
