Photos: Kings, Canucks practice in Shanghai

Quotes and notes from practice will follow, as will a look at the Kings and the NHL’s efforts to grow the game in China and back at home. Photos, arranged chronologically, depict Vancouver’s 11:00 a.m. practice at Mercedes-Benz Arena, followed by Los Angeles’ skate at 1:00 p.m. local time. Pictured among the Canucks photos is Zehao Sun, a goalie who represented China in the Asian Winter Games and the World Championships’ Division II, Group B pool, who was signed to an ATO and will serve as an emergency, third-string goaltender for the NHL China Games. There was some fog.
