Liam Öhgren and Brock Boeser provided the two goals for the Canucks, while goaltender Leevi Meriläinen stopped 23 of the 29 shots he faced.

Winnipeg dominated offensively with goals from Alex Iafallo, Cole Koepke, Dawson Mercer, Neal Pionk, Mark Scheifele, and Mario Ferraro. Following the game, Manny Malhotra criticized the Canucks' effort level and execution during puck battles. The loss also highlighted Vancouver's ongoing penalty-killing troubles, as they allowed a power-play goal for the 14th time in 18 games this season.
