Baertschi, Canucks send LA Kings to 3rd straight loss, 3-2

LOS ANGELES -- The Vancouver Canucks gave up a goal on their opponents' opening shot for the second straight game, and they trailed 2-0 just 3:14 in at Staples Center.

That sour start just made the rally even sweeter as they surged past the slumping Los Angeles Kings.

Sven Baertschi scored the tiebreaking goal on a power play early in the third period and the Canucks wrapped up a four-game trip by sending the Kings to their third consecutive loss, 3-2 on Tuesday night.

Henrik Sedin and Bo Horvat scored second-period goals for the Canucks, who had lost two straight and five of seven.
