Recap, New York Islanders @ Los Angeles Kings: 44 Seconds in Heaven

It happened so suddenly, even the media outlets covering the game couldn’t quite grasp what was going on.

Nope, ESPN.

OK, ESPN got the right goal-scorers, and they eventually fixed the times, but still. Let’s spell it out and avoid the confusion:

Dwight King scored the go-ahead goal with 2:53 to go, tipping in a Derek Forbort shot. He scored again 25 seconds later. Then Muzzin, with the empty netter, 19 seconds after that. All clear? Cool, let’s go over everything again!

It was a classic Kings game for about 40 minutes. As so often happens, LA got on the board through a shot by a defenseman; this time it was Alec Martinez, getting a point for the fourth straight game.
