Brock Boeser enters Monday’s game against the Philadelphia Flyers two points short of 500 in the NHL, all with the Vancouver Canucks. Vancouver says he would become the eighth player to reach the mark with the franchise.

Boeser scored Saturday in Vancouver’s 4–2 loss at Edmonton. He has seven goals and nine assists in 19 games this season. The Canucks (3-15-1) have dropped five straight in regulation.

The Flyers (4-10-5) are playing the second game of a back-to-back after losing 4–3 in overtime at Calgary on Sunday. Philadelphia held the lead three times in that game.

Puck drop is at 7:30 p.m. Vancouver time (9:30 p.m. ET) at Rogers Arena. The teams meet again Nov. 27 in Philadelphia.
