VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Jarome Iginla is hoping that one memorable night leads to another Friday.
The 39-year-old Los Angeles Kings winger will play what could be his last game in Vancouver, two nights after excelling and then receiving a rousing send-off from fans after what could have been his final game in Calgary, where he starred for many years.
Friday's matchup holds extra meaning as the Kings (43-30-4) fight to keep their slim playoff hopes alive against the already eliminated Canucks (30-37-9).
The Kings are 10 points out of a playoff spot, and a loss to Vancouver would eliminate them from contention.
