One positive from this game for the Kings was that Darryl Sutter moved into sole possession of 2nd place on the franchise list for games coached, but that really might be it.
The scratches for the Kings were Devin Setoguchi and Kevin Gravel. The scratches for the Lightning were Alex Killorn, Ondrej Palat, and Michael Bournival. Palat was out with a lower body injury, and Bournival was out with an upper body injury.
The Kings ended up getting 19 out of their 28 shots on goal in the first period alone, in a game that didn’t really get out of hand until the 2nd period.
