Conor Garland tallies twice to help Canucks beat Blues

Canucks, Blues

Conor Garland scored two goals and Quinn Hughes earned two assists to lead the visiting Vancouver Canucks past the St. Louis Blues 5-2 Monday night.

Tyler Myers had a goal and an assist and J.T. Miller and Pius Suter also scored for the Canucks, who won for just the fourth time in 12 games.

Kevin Lankinen made 24 saves and earned an assist for Vancouver.

Dylan Holloway and Colton Parayko scored for the Blues, who lost their third straight game while falling to 11-13-1 at home.

Jordan Binnington allowed three goals on 18 shots before Blues coach Jim Montgomery pulled him in favor of Joel Hofer.

The Canucks took a 1-0 with a 2-on-1 rush less than three minutes into the game. Hughes rushed up the left wing, then slid a pass to Garland breaking in from the right wing for the game’s first goal.

Blues defenseman Tyler Tucker hammered a slap shot as Holloway bumped into Lankinen in the crease. When the resulting goal was nullified by a goaltender interference call, St. Louis unsuccessfully challenged the ruling.

That failure gave the Canucks a power play, which they converted into a 2-0 lead with 4:07 left in the first period. Brock Boeser’s shot from the slot bled through Binnington, allowing Garland to reach in and swipe the puck into the net.

Vancouver made it 3-0 with a power-play goal at the 8:26 mark of the second period. The Canucks caught the Blues in a line change midway though the man advantage and Miller scored on a breakaway off Hughes’ outlet pass. Lankinen was credited with the secondary assist.

The Blues answered with a power-play goal to cut their deficit to 3-1. Holloway blasted a shot from the left circle with teammate Jake Neighbours screening Lankinen.

St. Louis got another opportunity with a 4-minute power play, but Suter scored a short-handed breakaway goal on Hofer to increase the Canucks’ lead to 4-1 with 6:24 left in the middle period.

Parayko trimmed the deficit to 4-2 by cutting to the net and backhanding a pass that caromed off a defender into the net 4:22 into the third period.

Myers capped the scoring on an empty-net goal with 2:03 remaining.
