The Canucks edged the Isles on Thursday night.
— Nils Hoglander and rookie Vasily Podkolzin scored 45 seconds apart midway through the third period and Thatcher Demko made 24 saves as the Vancouver Canucks edged theAnthony Beauvillier had put the Islanders ahead 3-2 early in the third, flipping the puck past Demko at 1:49 for his ninth goal after the teams each scored twice in the second period.
Vancouver has won seven of its last 10 games and is 19-8-4 since Boudreau replaced Travis Green as coach in early December. The 21-year-old Hoglander scored his ninth goal at 9:34 of the third finishing off a pretty passing sequence from Conor Garland and Quinn Hughes. Hoglander was a second-round pick by Vancouver in 2019.
The Islanders started a six-game homestand at UBS Arena after a five-game Western road trip during which they were 2-2-1. Varlamov made 34 saves, but fell to 3-11-1 on the season. New York, which reached the semifinals the past two postseasons, is 20-23-8 this season. Dobson has nine points — four goals and five assists — in his last 10 games, and his 10 goals since Dec. 5 are the most of all NHL defensemen over that span.
