LOS ANGELES — Matt Luff scored a power-play goal, and Jeff Carter bounced one in as part of a decisive second period to help lift the last-place Kings past the Golden Knights 5-1 in a Saturday matinee at Staples Center.
Los Angeles scored five straight times after allowing an early Knights goal, capped by Derek Forbort’s first of the season on a blast from the blue line early in the third period that Knights goalie Marc-Andre Fleury never saw because of traffic in front of the net and Nate Thompson’s second of the season in the closing minutes.
