Canucks lineup tonight: Vancouver’s projected lineup for game against the Toronto Maple Leafs | Feb. 8 2025

The Vancouver Canucks will look to make it three in a row on Saturday when they face off with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Vancouver is coming off a 2-1 overtime win over the San Jose Sharks on Thursday.

After kicking off February with a 3-2 OT loss against the Red Wings on Sunday, the team was able to bounce back with a 3-0 shutout win over the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday, leading up to Thursday's win over the Sharks. With six victories in their last 10 and back-to-back wins heading into tonight's game, the Canucks will be riding momentum into the contest.

Meanwhile, in the case of Toronto, the team is in the midst of a three-game win streak that's seen them pick up wins over Edmonton, Calgary and most recently, Seattle.

Heading into tonight's game, Vancouver will look to put some separation between it and the Flames, who are sitting just behind them in the wild-card race.
