The Vancouver Canucks have a habit of giving up milestone goals.
Four players, including Wayne Gretzky and Joe Sakic, scored their 500th career goal against Vancouver. And now you can add a fifth name to that list: Patrick Marleau.
Less than two weeks ago, the Rogers Arena crowd saw Henrik Sedin score point no. 1000 and help his team to a win. This time they watched the San Jose Sharks hit a milestone and win the game.
Final Score:
1 | 2 | 3 | T | |
Canucks | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
Sharks | 2 | 0 | 2 | 4 |
Recap:
