It was DeBrusk’s first game against Boston after spending the first seven seasons of his career with the Bruins, who selected him with the No. 14 pick of the 2015 NHL Draft. The 28-year-old forward signed a seven-year contract with Vancouver as a free agent on July 1.

A supreme defensive effort got the Canucks' East Coast road trip off to a 2-0-0 start with a shutout in Boston.

Jake DeBrusk scored a power-play goal in his return to Boston, and Kevin Lankinen made 32 saves as the Vancouver Canucks beat the Bruins 2-0.

We are giving ourselves a chance to compete in games now. the guys are defending hard...but offensively we have to get some guys going.” Jake DeBrusk scored on the power play for the Canucks in his return to TD Garden ice since signing with Vancouver.

The story of this game was Lankinen, who stood on his head in the victory. He made highlight reel saves and helped Vancouver capture their 11th win of the season despite being outshot 32-15. After some tough games earlier this month, it looks like Lankinen is returning to his early-season form, as he was unbeatable tonight in Boston.

It’s not about how you do it sometimes. The Vancouver Canucks absolutely stole a result from the Boston Bruins last night, managing to get a 2-0 win off the back of an incredible performance by Kevin Lankinen.

The Vancouver Canucks added another win in the road game column with a 2-0 victory over the Boston Bruins. The Canucks made a solid showing in the defensive end, starting with goaltender Kevin Lankinen,
