Canucks Beat Panthers 4-0, End Streak

The Vancouver Canucks achieved a decisive 4-0 victory over the Florida Panthers, with Kevin Lankinen earning his third shutout of the season, stopping all 27 shots faced. J.T. Miller made a notable return from a 10-game absence, contributing two assists, while Carson Soucy, Danton Heinen, Brock Boeser, and Jake DeBrusk scored for Vancouver. This win ended the Panthers' impressive seven-game points streak and marked the first time they were shut out this season. The Canucks' defense, bolstered by the return of Derek Forbort, effectively contained the Panthers' offense, which is typically high-scoring. Despite being outshot 27-19, the Panthers struggled with puck possession and failed to capitalize on two power-play opportunities. The win is seen as a significant morale booster for the Canucks, especially with the return of key players as they navigate injuries and a challenging season.
