Vanek, Boeser, Gagner combine for 12 points vs. Blackhawks

It's an unorthodox trio, but boy was it effective Thursday.

The Vancouver Canucks' line of rookie Brock Boeser and veterans Thomas Vanek and Sam Gagner combined for a whopping 12 points against the Chicago Blackhawks in a 5-2 win.

The three had a hand in each of the five goals. Vanek led the way with two goals and five points, Boeser chipped in a goal and three assists, and Gagner contributed two goals and one assist.

The three have been particularly hot of late, having combined for 21 points over the last four games.
