The Vancouver Canucks' first win on home ice stopped the red-hot Montreal Canadiens in their tracks.
Jared McCann scored twice and Ryan Miller made 25 saves as Vancouver picked up a 5-1 victory on Tuesday to hand Montreal its first loss of the season.
"It was huge," said Canucks forward Alex Burrows. "It's a huge measuring stick against probably the best team in the league right now."
The Canadiens (9-1-0) had set an NHL record with nine straight regulation wins to begin the year, and were one victory from tying the best start in league history set by the 1993-94 Toronto Maple Leafs and the 2006-07 Buffalo Sabres.
