Vancouver Canucks faced a 5-4 defeat to Vegas Golden Knights
On Monday, Canucks faced a 4-5 defeat to the Knights despite fighting hard when Alex Pietrangelo scored the match-winning goal. Quinn Hughes looked as powerful as he has throughout the season. Pettersson scored, drove play, and made two saves setting him on a short rundown of the most potent two-way players in the NHL. Bo Horvat has 15 goals this season, and Canucks are 6-10-3 despite their last match’s loss.

For the second time this season, the Vancouver Canucks (6-9-3) figured out how to dominate sequential matches in the wake of following up the 5-4 triumph on Tuesday at Sabers with a 4-1 victory against the Kings on Friday at Rogers Field. Elias Pettersson (this year scored nine goals and 22 points) and Brock Boeser ( scored two goals and 11 points this season) both counted two times, which outshot 38-25, yet the Canucks squad managed both of its penalties and went 1-3, in the end improving to a 3-1-1 record in its previous five homegrown challenges. But last night, they faced an unexpected loss to the Knights.
The Controversial goal from the Vegas Golden Nights
It was a significant third period for the Vegas Golden Knights, and Vancouver Canucks, as the teams consolidated for four goals in a little more than three minutes. On Monday, Canucks squad transformed a one-goal deficiency into a two-goal lead to surrender two goals.
Yet, amid the disarray, the most unusual moment of the period was the point at which the go-on goals for the Knights were disallowed because of a deviant camera focal point falling onto the ice.
The Golden Knights go ahead goal was called back because the puck went into a camera hole causing the lens to fall on the ice.

The occurrence happened when Oliver Ekman-Larsson, a defender of the Canucks, shot the puck trying to clear the guarded zo; however, instead hit a camera lens, sending the external defensive layer onto the ice. Mark Stone, Knight’s captain. Then, at that point, they scored in the third period making it 5-4 midway.
