Game Preview

The perch atop the league standings held by the Vancouver Canucks is becoming tenuous as they prepare to host the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday night in a clash of two struggling squads.

The Canucks of the Western Conference are tied with the New York Rangers of the Eastern at 83 points to lead the pack, but a 1-4-1 skid — with their latest disappointment a 4-3 overtime home loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday — has diminished their breathing room.

“I think we’re trying to find that identity, that it’s really hard to finish games this time of year, and moving forward, our schedule doesn’t get any easier,” said forward J.T. Miller, who netted one goal and one assist. “If you want to play when we’re supposed to be playing, or when we want to be playing, it’s going to get hard, and we’ve been trying to talk about embracing the hardness.”
