Brock Boeser picked up his 500th NHL point against the Rangers on Friday. Vancouver now heads to Vegas for a rematch with the Golden Knights, who took the first meeting 3–2 in October.
If you see the Canucks taking this one, Boeser’s shots give you a way to follow the pressure Vancouver creates. Mark Stone’s assists ask a different question at the other end. Can the Canucks keep him from setting up a goal, especially on the power play?

Brock Boeser over 1.5 shots on goal
Boeser was slotted with Elias Pettersson and Jake DeBrusk on Friday. Look for Pettersson to find him in stride or off the far post before Vegas gets set. Boeser put six shots on net against Anaheim in Vancouver’s last win, with more than seven minutes of power-play time.
He cleared the line in two of Vancouver’s three wins this season. The longer sample shows how often he can reach two in a win, but eight of those covers landed on exactly two. He had zero shots in the first meeting with Vegas and one against the Rangers. Even with ice time and a point on the board, the second shot can be hard to find.
Mark Stone under 0.5 assists
Stone went without an assist in all eight Vegas losses this season. In Friday’s shootout loss to Nashville, Vegas scored twice at even strength and the assists came from other skaters. Stone has scored in three Vegas losses, so this line can still hold if he finishes a chance himself.
Vancouver has already seen what can go wrong. Stone helped set up Victor Olofsson’s power-play goal in the first meeting and picked up another power-play assist against Utah on Wednesday. If Vegas gets repeated looks with the extra skater, even a pass early in the sequence can undo this under.

What to watch in Las Vegas
Watch whether Boeser is getting the puck in shooting position or spending more of his shifts feeding teammates. If Vancouver is taking early penalties, Stone’s line becomes harder to back even if the Canucks are generating chances at the other end.
