47 seconds into the second period of game one, Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Lindholm scored the first goal of the playoffs.

The trade addition made good on his regular season struggles, sending Rodgers Arena into a frenzy. 

The Canucks haven't had a home playoff game with fans in attendance since 2015. 

Dakota Joshua and Nikita Zadorov earned assists on the play. This was Lindholm's ninth career postseason goal. He scored eight in three previous playoff runs with the Calgary Flames.

Quinn Hughes tied the game at two with his first career playoff goal with 11:01 left in the third period. 12 seconds later Joshua gave the Canucks a 3-2 lead.
