Mitch Marner and Victor Olofsson also scored and Hill made 18 saves for the Golden Knights (2-1-0), who bounced back from a 4-3 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Friday.
“Obviously, the second goal there, I got that one back, but the guys responded well and scored on the next shift, which was huge,” said Hill, who made nine saves in the third period in his first start this season. “We got the lead right away and let it out from there.”
Paul Cotter scored and Kevin Lankinen made 25 saves for the Canucks (2-2-0), who were playing back-to-backs after a 4-1 win against the Calgary Flames on Saturday.
“For a team that everyone in the world said, ‘This (team) is going to finish last in the league,’ I’m pretty pleased with how we’re performing,” Cotter said. “We have a great group. I’ve said it 10 times, but we have a very egoless group. We have a mix of older, younger guys and guys in between, and a lot of skills. And when you have a room that is so close and willing to get better together, it can take you a long way. So, we’ve struggled. We’ve had some great teams that we’ve played against here early on, and we continue to try to get better. Will keep.”
