Reuters
VANCOUVER - The Vancouver Canucks claimed their third win in four when they brushed aside the Los Angeles Kings 4-1 on Thursday.
Third period scores from Henrik Sedin, Tanner Glass and Kyle Wellwood proved the difference as The Canucks (13-11-0) improved to 9-3-0 at home.
Daniel Sedin, who scored 31 goals last year, also grabbed an assist for the home side in his second game back after recovering from a broken foot.
Alexandre Burrows put the Canucks up in the first but Wayne Simmonds tied the game at 1-1 early in the second before Vancouver's last-period rally.
It was a third loss in four games for The Kings (14-10-2).
