Logan Cooley, back in the lineup after missing the last seven games due to a lower-body injury, also scored for Utah, which won for the second time in three games. Clayton Keller had two assists, and John Marino and Nick Schmaltz each had one. Utah’s Karel Vejmelka finished with 14 saves.
Jake DeBrusk scored for Vancouver. Arturs Silos had 30 saves. Elias Pettersson and Pius Suter assisted on DeBrusk’s power-play goal at 1:43 of the second period that opened the score.
