US EditionKings Host the Capitals After Overtime Win
Adrian Kempe nets overtime winner for Kings, who extend points streak to five despite multiple disallowed goals and fatigue from back-to-back games.
- In sudden-death overtime, Adrian Kempe scored after Kevin Lankinen ended face down in the crease, and the goal stood following review as the Los Angeles Kings beat the Vancouver Canucks 2-1 at Crypto.com Arena on Saturday night.
- After both teams lost on Friday, their weary legs produced a low-energy game Saturday, with an analytically even 1-1 deadlock through 60 minutes per Natural Stat Trick.
- In the first period, multiple video reviews and coach challenges wiped off early goals before Anze Kopitar scored with 2:41 remaining after three potential goals went to review.
- The Kings gained momentum in standings, extending their five-game points streak, while Vancouver's recent slide continued despite Evander Kane's goal and Kevin Lankinen's 21 saves.
- Special-Teams notes: Kings penalty kill has stopped 24 straight penalties, but power play conversion is five for past 56, and both teams face games Tuesday.
