The Vancouver Canucks destroyed the San Jose Sharks for the ninth time in a row on Thursday night.

JT Miller started out the scoring for the night with a nice slap-shot to give the Canucks the early lead. Andrey Kuzmenko scored shortly after giving the Canucks the two goal lead. This was Kuzmenkos thirty-fifth goal of the season making him the highest scoring rookie in franchise history! The Sharks finally answered back though as Tomáš Hertl scored shortly after Kuzmenkos goal. It seemed as though this was all the action the first period would see, but Dakota Joshua made a late charge to the goal and put one in at the buzzer to give the Canucks the two goal lead heading into the second period.

Conor Garland kicked off the scoring halfway into the second period to increase the Canucks lead even more. San Jose was able to answer back short handed though as Andrew Agozzino shot one past Thatcher Demko to end the second period.

The Canucks were on fire in the third period as Vasily Podkolzin, Phillip Di Giuseppe, and Sheldon Dries all scored to give the Canucks a five goal lead!

The Canucks dominated this match up with a final score of 7-2.

Once again, fans, experts, and myself were left wondering, why are the Canucks winning? This team should be tanking right now to get a better draft pick but they can’t seem to lose a game as of late. The team are 8-2 in their last ten!

The Canucks return tomorrow night to play the Stars. Let’s hope they can finally start losing again soon.
