Svechnikov scored two power-play goals, one the game-winner, in Thursday's 7-2 victory over the Canucks.

Both tallies came in the first period from in close, as Svechnikov gave the defending Stanley Cup champs a 3-0 lead before the 10-minute mark. The 26-year-old winger is off to a flying start to the campaign, finding the scoresheet in four straight games and racking up three goals and six points in five contests with four of those points (two goals, two assists) coming on the power play.
