Nikolay Goldobin is making quite the impression in Vancouver, both on and off the ice.

Acquired by the Canucks from San Jose prior to the trade deadline, the 21-year-old forward scored a breakaway goal in his first game with his new club.

Asked to describe his game to those who may not be familiar, Goldobin literally had nothing to say.

"There are no words, just let me show you and that will be easier," he said, per Ben Kuzma of The Province.

Goldobin seems excited about the opportunity to let his game do the talking while playing a bigger role in Vancouver than he was afforded with the Sharks.

"I was kind of surprised at being traded and who knows what is going on, but I was happy to be traded to this organization," he said. "It was hard to make that (Sharks) team and I probably would have been playing fourth line."

Selected 27th overall by the Sharks in 2014, Goldobin's goal with the Canucks was only his second in 12 NHL games. He did record 39 goals and 51 assists in 115 games down in the AHL, and has the look of a key contributor moving forward for the rebuilding Canucks.
