The U.

Vancouver coach Rick Tocchet won’t deny being among the NHL's final eight teams still alive means a lot.

Brad Marchand and Danton Heinen scored short-handed in the first period, and the Boston Bruins beat the Vancouver Canucks 4-0 in a matchup of the NHL’s top two teams.

Washington star Alexander Ovechkin and high-scoring Edmonton teammates Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl headline the rosters for the NHL All-Star Weekend announced Thursday.

Aleksander Barkov scored his team-leading 15th goal and also had an assist for Florida.

Bo Horvat scored his second goal of the game on a power play with 7:08 remaining, and Conor Garland scored on a breakaway three minutes later as the Vancouver Canucks spoiled the home debut of the Seattle Kraken 4-2 Saturday night.

Miller had two goals Monday night, including his 100th in the NHL, and Vancouver scored five times in the first period on its way to a 7-2 victory over the Florida Panthers. The first goal of the game for the 26-year-old Miller marked a milestone, but it wasn't something he was focused on. Traded to Vancouver from Tampa Bay last June, the versatile forward has concentrated instead on making his mark with the Canucks (7-3-1). Bobrovsky made four saves in 13:42 before the 22-year-old Montembeault returned for the second period. Miller's second goal put the Canucks up 6-2 with 29 seconds left in the second.
