As in the first game on March 4 in Columbus, the @LAKings scored first - former Captain Dustin Brown’s 9th goal and 28th point (9-19), from Blake Lizotte at even strength, 1:41 into the game. 1-0 Kings. #LAKvsCBJ
Unlike the first meeting, the @lakings scored to take a 2-0 lead; it was number 24 Phillip Danault’s 24th goal and 48th point (24-24), assisted by Viktor Arvidsson and (Thousand Oaks native) Trevor Moore at 7:02 1st, even strength. #LAKvsCBJ
53 seconds into the middle frame, Sean Kuraly (formerly of Boston) scored his 13th of the season and 29th point (13-16), assisted by Carson Meyer and Gustav Nyquist, to halve LA’s lead to 2-1. No one else scored and LA got its win. #LAKvsCBJ
Interesting matchup tonight at @cryptocomarena by two playoff bubble teams. @BlueJacketsNHL visit, having won 2 in a row and 3 of 4, but if the @Capitals get at least a point at @CanadiensMTL, the Blue Jackets will be officially eliminated. #LAKvsCBJ
Meanwhile, the host @LAKings have lost 4 of their last 5 - with all 4 losses this month, and in regulation - and if the @GoldenKnights get even a point at @EdmontonOilers, LA will be outside the playoffs… #LAKvsCBJ
In LA’s case, outside the playoffs does not mean eliminated…but a tie between LA and Vegas favors Vegas (game in hand and regulation wins) and if LA drops out of 3rd, they have to deal with Dallas, who has 89 points and hosts San Jose. LA has 88. #LAKvsCBJ
