VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Hollidaysburg native Sam Lafferty scored a goal for the Vancouver Canucks in their 3-1 win over the San Jose Sharks late Monday night.

Lafferty’s short-handed goal with 1 second left in the second period made it 2-0. Lafferty won the puck in the Sharks’ corner from Thomas Hertl, and after Teddy Blueger’s shot was denied, Lafferty scored on the rebound.

Canucks coach Rick Tocchet said the goal was an example of what Vancouver wanted to fix after its 4-3 loss to Seattle on Saturday.

“He snaps up, takes the puck from the guy, (Anthony) Beauvillier makes a nice play, that’s the stuff we got to get better at. We talked about that and we got a goal from it,” Tocchet said.

Vancouver is 13-5-1 this season, and Lafferty has played in every game and has four goals and four assists.
