It took six games, but the Vancouver Canucks are on their way to the second round. It was a close series with lots of goals scored between Vancouver and the Los Angeles Kings. However, the Canucks managed overcome Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick when it counted with a final score in game six of 4-2.

The Sedin twins, Daniel and Henrik, made some big plays along with Mikael Samuelsson, who proved his worth from playoffs of the past. Drew Doughty, Anze Kopitar and Michal Handzus caused a few headaches for the Vancouver team, but Roberto Luongo looked sharp with a number of spectacular saves to keep his team in the game.

The Canucks are now waiting for the outcome of the Chicago Blackhawks and Nashville Predators series to see who they face in the second round.
