The Vancouver Canucks bumped their scoring slump Thursday, ending a three-game losing streak with a 4-0 win over the Philadelphia Flyers.

After getting just one goal in each of their previous four games, Vancouver scored early and often, with all four of their goals coming in the first 22 minutes of the game.

Nick Bonino and Henrik Sedin scored in the first period for the Canucks, with Bonino’s goal coming on a spin-o-rama six minutes in.
