VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Brendan Gaunce scored his second goal of the game late in the third period, and the Vancouver Canucks overcame an early deficit to beat the Chicago Blackhawks 4-2 on Thursday night.

Daniel Sedin and Bo Horvat also scored for the Canucks. Troy Stecher added two assists, and Vancouver won for the fifth time in eight games after a 2-11-3 stretch.

The Canucks also won back-to-back games on home ice for the second time this season.

Vancouver was clinging to a one-goal lead when Gaunce directed Loui Eriksson's pass past goaltender Anton Forsberg at 17:02 of the third.
