Canucks winger Jake DeBrusk reacted to criticism from head coach Rick Tocchet after a loss to the Stars on Sunday.
This is what Rick Tocchet said about limiting the ice-time of his key Vancouver Canucks stars like Elias Pettersson.
Jake DeBrusk led the Boston Bruins in playoff scoring last spring. Can the big winger channel that performance — 11 points (5-6) in 13 games, second in hits (53), and second among forwards in blocked shots (16) — into the present?
Vancouver convincingly controlled play and piled up nearly 40 shots to grind out a much-needed 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks.
Compared to the huge waves and swells that DeBrusk has ridden during his first season with the Canucks, Sunday’s rollback in ice time and Tocchet’s criticism were mere ripples.
