In a Thursday night matchup in Vancouver, Lucas Raymond led the Detroit Red Wings to a 5-2 win over the Canucks with a two-goal, one-assist effort. The loss marked Vancouver's ninth consecutive defeat.
Detroit also saw goals from William Wallinder, Michael Rasmussen, and Emmitt Finnie, while Victor Arvidsson and Michael Brandsegg-Nygard each contributed two assists. The Red Wings' record now stands at 4-3-3.
Detroit goaltender John Gibson made four saves on five shots before exiting with an upper-body injury. He was replaced by Michal Postava at the start of the third period, and the Czech netminder stopped all seven shots he faced in his NHL debut.
Vancouver (2-9-1) received a goal and an assist from Jonathan Lekkerimaki, and Elias Pettersson scored his fourth of the season on a first-period power play. Canucks goalie Kevin Lankinen had a rough start, surrendering three goals in the first nine minutes, and finished with 26 saves.
Next up, the Red Wings travel to Calgary on Saturday night, while the Canucks host former captain Quinn Hughes and the Minnesota Wild on Sunday.
