Conor Garland's Overtime Goal Lifts Canucks Over Kings in 3-2 Victory

Vancouver secures a critical win in their playoff push as Quinn Hughes returns to the lineup after injury.

Conor Garland scored twice, including the game-winning overtime goal, to lead the Vancouver Canucks to a 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings.
Nils Hoglander also scored for Vancouver, while goaltender Kevin Lankinen made 24 saves to help the team reclaim the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
Quinn Hughes, Vancouver's leading scorer, returned after missing six games and contributed the primary assist on Garland's overtime goal.
The Kings rallied from a 2-0 deficit with third-period goals by Adrian Kempe and Warren Foegele, but their attempt to overturn the game-winner fell short.
The Canucks now prepare to face the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday, aiming to extend their eight-game winning streak against the team.
