The Vancouver Canucks will face former captain Quinn Hughes and the Minnesota Wild in what will be their final match of their current four-game road trip. Vancouver is coming off a shocking 8–6 win against the league’s-best Colorado Avalanche, during which Evander Kane and Victor Mancini sat and Max Sasson and Pierre-Olivier Joseph came in. Here are the lineup notes for April 2, 2026. Tonight will see yet another change in the lineup as Ty Mueller, who was called up [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/vancouver-canucks/latest-news/canucks-call-up-forward-ty-mueller-from-abbotsford] to Vancouver yesterday, will enter the lineup in place of Nils Höglander. This will be Mueller’s first game of the season at the NHL level, as he played in two games with the Canucks the season prior. In goal tonight will be Nikita Tolopilo, who makes his 14th start of the season tonight. The young goaltender last played on March 28 against the Calgary Flames, allowing four goals on 11 shots faced. Tolopilo’s last game against Minnesota came on December 6, in which he surrendered only two goals on 30 shots to help his team to a win.
