The Kings are scheduled to practice tomorrow at 10 a.m. in El Segundo, in advance of Wednesday’s playoff opener. The last time the Kings played in Vancouver, Darryl Sutter took a couple jabs at the Canucks and those who cover the team. Sutter noted, of the Canucks, “It’s a pretty well-balanced team. We feel fortunate they could fit us into their schedule tonight. … All you have to do is listen to everything. You can’t imagine how they could lose a game, again.’’ Well, the Canucks haven’t lost many of late, even without injured star Daniel Sedin, who is recovering from a concussion. The Canucks finished the regular season by winning eight of their last nine games. We’ll take a more in-depth look at the Canucks tomorrow, but for now, here’s a first-look sampling from the Vancouver newspapers, and then the big question: how do you think the series will go?
