It wasn't the hero Vancouver wanted, but it was the hero they needed.
Derek Dorsett ended the Vancouver Canucks lowly goalless streak at 159:27, hopping on a rebound and pounding the puck past Toronto Maple Leafs netminder Frederik Andersen.
The goal was the team's first since Bo Horvat scored in the second period of the team's 5-2 loss to the Washington Capitals on Oct. 29.
Unfortunately for the Canucks, they were already down 2-0 at that point so they will need to find the back of the net at least one more time if they hope to pick up their first win in eight games.
