Derek Dorsett saved one of his best performances of the season for game No. 82, posting his second multi-point game of the year, but his night ended early after receiving a misconduct in the third period.
The 29-year-old was ejected after spraying Edmonton Oilers forward Patrick Maroon - who just scored the game-tying goal - with water, while both players were sitting on their respective benches.
Luckily for Dorsett, the Canucks got the last laugh with a 4-3, shootout victory.
The 26-year-old made a sensational glove stop on Edmonton Oilers forward Jordan Eberle early in the second period of Saturday's game to preserve his team's 1-0 lead.
However good the save was though, the Canucks will still finish this season with the third-worst record in the league.
