Hughes made it 3-1 Vancouver at 2:44 of the third period on a wrist shot from the left point. The defenseman has six points (one goal, five assists) in his past three games. Vladislav Gavrikov cut it to 3-2 at 13:57 on a shot from the blue line through Trevor Lewis’ screen.

Playoff level physicality took center stage on Thursday night as the Los Angeles Kings fell to the Vancouver Canucks, 4-2. Unfortunately for the Kings, they not only lost the game, but also likely some manpower in the short term.

For the sixth straight game, the Canucks conceded the game’s first goal. Despite that stat, though, they’ve managed to win some games along the way, and tonight was no exception!
