Canucks Clinch Pacific Division Title with Win Over Flames
Demko Shines in Return, Myers Scores and Assists
Vancouver First Canadian Team to Secure NHL Playoff Spot
The Vancouver Canucks clinched the Pacific Division title on Tuesday night with a 4-1 victory over the Calgary Flames. The win was the Canucks' first with a fully healthy lineup all season, and it came on the heels of a 39-save performance from Thatcher Demko.
Tyler Myers had a goal and an assist for the Canucks, while Elias Pettersson, Andrei Kuzmenko, and Bo Horvat also scored. Demko made several big saves throughout the game, including a spectacular glove save on a breakaway by Flames forward Elias Lindholm in the second period.
The win was a big one for the Canucks, who are now 42-27-10 on the season. It also clinched a playoff spot for the Canucks, who are now the first Canadian team to do so this season.
The Canucks will be back in action on Thursday night when they host the Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers are currently one point behind the Canucks in the standings, so it will be a big game for both teams.
