After a 4-1 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Saturday night, the Vancouver Canucks climbed to the top of the Pacific Division standings.
Vancouver received plenty of help earlier in the day, which set them in prime position to move into first. The Edmonton Oilers defeated the Arizona Coyotes, while the Calgary Flames and Vegas Golden Knights fell to the Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens, respectively.
Everything went Vancouver’s way on Saturday, as they thoroughly dominated a San Jose team that’s surprisingly near the very bottom of the Western Conference standings.
The Canucks now enter the All-Star break with a 27-18-4 record.
