It may not be the most glamourous job on the Vancouver Canucks, but one of the team's ice cleaners is getting a bit of the spotlight.
The cleaner, Devon (according to the Canucks twitter account), caught the eye of a Montreal Canadiens reporter earlier this week with his slick skate-and-shovel skills.
"Ok je veux sa prescription. C’est de même à chaque fois," wrote Marc-André Perreault writes in one tweet, which Google translates to "Ok I want his prescription. It's the same every time."

During breaks in the game when the ice cleaning crew comes out, Devon and his trusty shovel put on a bit of a show, scraping the crease and cleaning up the snow. The energy he puts into getting about 10 square feet of ice cleaned up could really be used in the last 20 minutes fo the game.
The NHL's official YouTube picked up on the performance and their version of the video has cracked 150,000 views today and is climbing quickly. On Instagram 30,000 people have liked the clip.
The Canucks tweeted today that he's been working for the organization since 2016.
Devon, hard at work since 2016. 👏 https://t.co/IpjQCzF5b3
