Update: The last time the Canucks paid a visit to Staples Center, they knocked off the Kings, 4-2, to win their best-of-seven first-round playoff series. The Kings got a bit of revenge Saturday in the season opener, winning at Vancouver, 2-1, in a shootout. Veteran center Manny Malhotra, who is married to Joann Nash, the sister of two-time NBA most valuable player Steve Nash, scored his first point in a Vancouver uniform during a 4-3 loss Wednesday against the Ducks.
