Although the Vancouver Canucks may be going nowhere fast in the standings, rookie defenseman Ben Hutton certainly went the extra mile to win a lip sync battle at the team's 16th annual Dice and Ice event.

With energetic dance moves and even teasing the removal of his shirt, Hutton did his best to honor the dance-pop group Aqua and its 1997 hit song "Barbie Girl" on Tuesday.

Give the 22-year-old Ontario native credit as he got the crowd jumping, presumably getting a leg up on the competition with fellow rookies Jake Virtanen, Jared McCann, and Sven Baertschi.

The Dice and Ice event involves Vancouver players, coaches and senior management taking part in a casino-style event where proceeds support the Canucks for Kids Fund.
