Kings’ Familiar Flaws Surface Again: What Really Doomed Them in Overtime Against Calgary?
Early Lead, No Follow-Up
The Kings struck midway through the first period when Adrian Kempe finished off a clean pass from Alex Laferriere to score his 11th goal of the season. But the momentum didn’t carry for Los Angeles’ offense.
Defensively, the Kings were great tonight until the final moments, especially in goal, where Kuemper delivered 36 saves, quietly playing like the best player on the Kings this season.

In the middle frame of the second period, the Flames answered back, tying the scoreboard 1-1 after extended pressure in the Kings’ zone, and Kevin Fiala turning it over, costing them a goal on the other end.
