Naslund shines in Canucks victory Michail Boncea (HV) Markus Naslund had a pair of goals to lead Vancouver Canucks to victory.
Markus Naslund thought thought Vancouver Canucks had enough chances
against St. Louis to score 10 goals. By the end of the game Vancouver
Canucks scored more than two goals for the first time in eight games
while having 44 shots on goal. The Blues had a chance to win because
of Bacashihua. Recalled from Peoria of the AHL, Bacashihua got his first
NHL start of the season one night after Manny Legace was pulled in Edmonton
for giving up four goals on 15 shots. Bacashihua finished with 40 saves,
including a number of spectacular stops. First goal was scored by St.
Louis Doug Weight in first period at 8:57 the assists went to Jeff Woywitka
and Lee Stempniak. Second goal of the game was scored by Vancouver Canucks
Brendan Morrison in first period at 14:49 the assists went to Matt Cooke
and Mattias Ohlund. The third goal of the game was scored by Vancouver
Canucks Markus Naslund in second period at 6:17 the assists went to
Henrik Sedin and Mattias Ohlud. The fourth goal of the game was scored
by Markus Naslund in second period at 18:00 the assists went to Henrik
Sedin and Daniel Sedin. The fifth goal of the game was scored by Keith
Tkachuk in the third period at 12:34 the assists went to Doug Weight
and Martin Rucinsky. The final goal of the game was scored by Ryan Kesler
in the third period at 18:59 and the assist went to Alex Burrows. After
the game during the post game interviews Vancouver Canucks Head Coach
not only loved the fact that his team won but as well the fact that
the team never give up and he gived the example of with 30 seconds to
go into the game Markus Naslund blocked a shot.
