Vancouver Canucks players celebrate the win over the Minnesota Wild during overtime NHL qualifying round game action in Edmonton, on Friday August 7, 2020.Christopher Tanev scored 11 seconds into overtime, and the Vancouver Canucks advanced to the Stanley Cup playoffs’ main draw with a 5-4 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Friday in Game 4 at Edmonton.
“It’s an awesome feeling and I’m happy for all the boys,” Tanev said. “It just shows how hard we worked all year, we were down, but we made some big-time plays by some big-time guys.”Bo Horvat also scored a goal and had two assists, Quinn Hughes and Tanner Pearson each had a goal and an assist, and Brandon Sutter also scored for the Canucks. Jacob Markstrom finished with 25 saves.
Minnesota, which was 0-for-13 on the power play in Game 2 and 3 losses, took a 1-0 lead at the 2:58 mark of the first period on a power-play goal by Kunin. He tucked in a rebound between Markstrom’s skate and the left post. Eriksson Ek made it 3-1 early in the second period when he batted in a loose puck at the bottom of the right circle. But Vancouver rallied to tie it with two goals in 84 seconds. The first came from Sutter, who tapped in a high rebound in the crease, and the second was from Hughes, who rifled a shot from above the circles past a Brock Boeser screen for his first NHL playoff goal.
