Celebrini wasn\u2019t the only Sharks player enjoying a homecoming in Vancouver.<\/p>\n

Defenseman Vincent Iorio<\/a> is from the Vancouver suburb of Coquitlam and heard his name called after recording an assist in the building he once skated in as a kid during the intermission games.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was the coolest thing ever so for me to be back here, but this time playing in front of everyone, is pretty cool,\u201d said Iorio, who had at least 30 family and friends at the game. \u201cI was telling my parents just how surreal it is \u2026 it’s just a full circle moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Conor Garland<\/a> and Filip Hronek<\/a> each had two assists, and Thatcher Demko<\/a> made 32 saves for the Canucks (15-19-3), who were coming off a 4-1-0 road trip before the Christmas break but have just four wins all season at home (4-11-1).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not good enough,\u201d Garland said. \u201cDeserved the outcome.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ryan Reaves<\/a> scored his first goal in 24 games at 6:13 of the first period to put the Sharks ahead 1-0, knocking in a loose puck behind Demko as he reached to cover it with his blocker.<\/p>\n

\u201cThought we should have challenged first one,\u201d Demko said. \u201cWhen I found it, I got my hand on top of it and swept it out, and then he pushed my entire arm in the net. So, I mean, you see challenges where guys are jabbing legs and whatever else in the net, and they usually get called back.\u201d<\/p>\n

John Klingberg<\/a> made it 2-0 at 7:55 with a point shot through traffic after Celebrini won an offensive zone face-off back to his defenseman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Celebrini wasn\u2019t the only Sharks player enjoying a homecoming in Vancouver.
