Cole supplied an assist, seven blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Cole's seven blocks were more than double any other player's total in this game. He also chipped in on offense by setting up a Lawson Crouse tally late in the third period. Cole had 11 points, 83 hits, 166 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 78 regular-season outings with the Canucks last year. At 35 years old, he's a bit of a journeyman -- Utah is his sixth franchise in the last five seasons -- but he'll offer grit and defensive skill in a bottom-four role. Cole has never finished with a plus-minus worse than minus-4 in his career, and he hasn't been in the negatives in a full campaign since 2018-19.
