Three straight losses raise pressure for final two regular-season games. More scoring is needed from young Kings and the second line.
The Kings have two opportunities to preserve their playoff position and end the regular season on the right foot, beginning with a visit from the Vancouver Canucks on Monday.
But McLellan was hardly content with the moral victory of outplaying the defending champions Saturday but still losing. “We’ve had some good, young prospects, some players that we’re counting on to [score goals], and they have to take some of the pressure away from Kempe, Kopitar and some of those other players,” McLellan said.
