First line quiet as Canucks beat Leafs again

After beating the Edmonton Oilers three times in a row, the Leafs have lost back to back games in Vancouver. The Canucks beat the Leafs 4-2 on Saturday on goals from Brock Boeser, Bo Horvat, JT Miller, and Nils Hoglander out-paced goals from Jimmy Vesey and John Tavares. Andersen gave up four on 31 shots, while Thatcher Demko stopped 37 of 39.

The Leafs first line of Matthews, Marner, and Thornton fell silent for the full 60 minutes, with turnovers and gripped sticks accounting for two goals against and some chances that disappointed.

First Period

Nylander started right where he left off on Thursday and beyond with two really good chances on his first shift of the game.
