Conor Garland Leads Vancouver To Victory
3 mins agoVancouver Canucks right wing Connor Garland tallied two goals, including the overtime winner, to power the Canucks over the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday evening. Garland found the back of the net for the first time in the second frame on the power-play. Then, in overtime, Garland would score his 16th goal of the season as he sealed the victory. This was a much-needed outing for the 28-year-old as he entered Wednesday's contest carrying a six-game scoreless streak. During this stretch, he averaged just two shots on goal per game and held a -1 rating. However, before this slump, Garland found the back of the net three times over his previous three contests while averaging 3.3 shots on goal per game. Overall, he has found the back of the net 16 times and added 20 helpers across 58 games. He will look to stay hot on Thursday evening against the Anaheim Ducks.
