The Toronto vs. Vancouver rivalry, nine NHL All-Stars between the two teams, both clubs highly competitive in the standings, a split-crowd atmosphere at Rogers Arena, and it's taking place on Hockey Day in Canada with a 7 p.m. Eastern start. It doesn't get much better than this for a mid-regular season game on the NHL schedule (7:00 p.m. EST, Sportsnet).
The Canucks haven't always deployed Elias Pettersson on the left wing of their go-to JT Miller-Brock Boeser duo this season, but the goals through 90 minutes at five-on-five are 11-3 in favour of the Canucks when the three are together. Miller and Pettersson are hovering around the top five in NHL point scoring at 61 and 59 points, respectively, while Brock Boeser is currently tied for fifth in NHL goal scoring with 27.
