Canucks 5, Kings 2

The Canucks didn’t take things easy on Ersberg either. Kevin Bieksa entered the Kings’ zone and passed left to Pavol Demitra, whose slap shot from the top of the left circle beat Ersberg high and clean at the 4:28 mark.

Fredrik Modin scored 24 seconds later, though, to make it 5-2. Matt Greene had the puck behind the net and faked a move behind the net and went to the front. Luongo stopped the shot, but Modin skated in and scored on a rebound at the 5:02 mark.
