Ehlers, Deslauriers Score Twice as Hurricanes Down Slumping Canucks 6-3
Stankoven and Ehlers each scored twice as Carolina rebounded from a loss and handed Vancouver its eighth straight defeat.
- On Tuesday, October 20, 2026, the Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Vancouver Canucks 6-3 at Rogers Arena. Nicolas Deslauriers, Logan Stankoven, and Nikolaj Ehlers each scored twice, with Jackson Blake adding three assists.
- Entering the game with a 2-8-1 record, the struggling Canucks had dropped eight consecutive contests. The reigning Stanley Cup champion Hurricanes extended their win streak against Vancouver to six straight, a pattern of dominance dating back to October 2024.
- Despite the loss, goaltender Leevi Merilainen provided a bright spot with 26 saves and denied a Sebastian Aho penalty shot in the second period. Vancouver also neutralized three power plays in the second and a double minor in the third.
- Stankoven's empty-netter with 2:03 remaining sealed the Hurricanes' offensive dominance. This defeat dropped the Canucks to 2-8-1, extending their winless skid as they continue struggling with consistent scoring and penalty kill efficiency.
- Both teams return Thursday, October 22, 2026: the Vancouver Canucks host the Detroit Red Wings while the Carolina Hurricanes visit the Edmonton Oilers. Vancouver faces mounting pressure to break their winless skid before the season deteriorates further.
