Every Canucks forward picked up a point against the FlaPanthers, the latest indicator that something special is happening on offence. (IMacSportsnet)

have amassed 17 goals in three games and led the National Hockey League in scoring.

The universality of Vancouver scoring was impressive enough, but that it came one game after the Canucks managed to lose after building a 5-1 lead against the Washington Capitals on Friday made Monday’s fireworks even louder and brighter. Forward J.T. Miller said: "That’s a lot of goals. It’s not always like that. When you… create a lot of odd-man opportunities down low and on the power play, it means you’re doing a lot of good things. We’re just finding a way to take advantage of it and put the puck in the net. We’re going to learn to play with a lead because if we want to be the team we talk about being this season, it’s going to happen a lot.

Here was the difference in the Canucks Monday, when they pulled away from the Panthers, and Friday when they let the Capitals back into the game: In the final minute of the first period, with a chance to take a three-goal lead to the intermission, Canucks defencemen Edler and Tyler Myers each made bold, aggressive challenges in the offensive zone to blow up Florida breakouts and turn the puck back towards the Panthers’ net.

Despite constant yammering in the market about Pettersson "struggling," last year’s Calder Trophy winner now has 14 points in 11 games.
