allkill326 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 CANUCKS (2-2-1) at KINGS (1-2-1) TV: TSN, FS-W Season series: This is the first of three meetings between the teams. They split a four-game season series in 2011-12. Big story: The defending Stanley Cup champs enter Monday’s action seven points behind the San Jose Sharks in the Pacific Division. Furthermore, the Kings – who have one win in four tries -- have scored only eight goals. Team scope: Canucks: Vancouver was no match for the red-hot Sharks on Sunday night, as San Jose cruised past the Canucks by a 5-1 score at HP Pavilion. Alexandre Burrows had the lone goal for Vancouver, which allowed two goals in the first 3:26 of the contest. "Power play wasn't as good," Canucks coach Alain Vigneault said of his club’s man advantage, which went 0-for-7 Sunday night. "We were unable to score. A couple of unforced errors that ended up right on their tape and in the back of the net." Kings: After getting off to an 0-2-1 start, Los Angeles finally earned its first win of the season Saturday night with a 4-2 victory at Phoenix. Anze Kopitar scored twice for the Kings, who won for the first time since hoisting the Stanley Cup last June. "No one in here thought we were going to go 0-48, but when you lose the first three you sure don't want to let things get away," forward Justin Williams said. "It's been seven months and things don't come back at the snap of a finger. But it was time to win a game and get a little pressure off." Who’s hot: Daniel Sedin leads the Canucks with six points (two goals, four assists) through the club’s first five games. … Kings forward Kyle Clifford has a goal and four assists in four contests. Injury report: Vancouver is still without center Ryan Kesler, who's recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, and forward David Booth (groin). … Kings defenseman Matt Greene, who underwent back surgery on Thursday, has been placed on injured reserve by the Kings and is expected to miss the remainder of the season. Fellow blueliner Willie Mitchell (knee surgery) is practicing and is close to returning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I really hope we play against LA the way we played against Anaheim. If we do, I'm sure we'll grab the W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hmmm...4-3 win for the Canucks. Burrows, Edler, Henrik, and Weise with the goals. Go down 3-0 in the first, then roar back with 4 straight for the comeback win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ugli Fruit Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Why does it say 5-1 Sharks in that article? Lol I don't know what to hope with Luongo now. If he plays well, CDC is going to have a meltdown. And I hate having to wait a long time to post. Bounce back game, 3-2 Canucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Canucks without Kesler. Kings without Willie MItchell and Matt Greene. Here's our chance to really stick it to them. That being said, If we have Last years Luongo and Edler show up, we might as well turn off the T.V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmpunk Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I think it will be a solid defensive and goaltending game from us. Lu will have to be solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 After being benched, the Twins will be much better tommorow. A solid 3-0 win with Kassian fighting Clifford to redeem himself after the Clowe fight.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
