Thomas Vanek, Bo Horvat, and Derek Dorsett all scored goals for the Canucks, but it wasn’t enough to stop the Bruins.

Boston saw goals from Anders Bjork, David Pasternak, David Krejci, Brad Marchand, and Patrice Bergeron.

Bergeron made his season debut for the Bruins Thursday, having missed the first five games.

The Bruins scored three power-play goals in the first period after Erik Gulbranson was given a major penalty for boarding, for a hit from behind.

He will have a hearing with the league on Friday for the penalty.

Jacob Markstrom made 14 saves for Vancouver and was later replaced by Anders Nilsson, who made a further 16 saves.
