VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Reid Boucher might get to stay in the NHL for a while now -- just by necessity.
The Vancouver journeyman forward's job security has been enhanced as the Canucks (22-28-6) battle injuries heading into Wednesday's home contest against the Florida Panthers (24-23-6).
But Boucher who has bounced between the minors and NHL this season and in recent years, helped his cause by scoring two goals in a 6-0 win over Dallas on Sunday. The trick now is to carry that effort into Wednesday's game and beyond.
"I seem to be comfortable and playing the right way," Boucher told Postmedia Tuesday.
