Brutal break for the #Canucks' leading goal scorer."
With starting goalie Thatcher Demko absent, along with Brock Boeser, the Canucks are officially short-handed.
Boeser produced 19 points( 7 G, 12 A) during 12 games of the Stanley Cup playoffs so far. The Canucks will have to rely upon scoring by committee in order to overcome the Oilers during game 7.
