Some additional takeaways from the surging Kings, who have won five consecutive games and have picked up points in their last seven games.
Embracing overtime, again
The Kings are 5-0 in overtime this season, and they pulled out another win in the final 27 seconds Tuesday. This was despite having played three games in four days, and Kings Coach Darryl Sutter noted that overtime hardly favored a weary team.
Defenseman Christian Ehrhoff, who scored the Kings’ first goal to cut the Blue Jackets’ lead to 2-1 late in the second period, said he is enjoying the challenge of overtime.
