It’s the seventh time this season that the Metropolitan Division-leading Hurricanes have won after facing a third-period deficit. Adrian Kempe scored twice and Kevin Fiala and Anze Kopitar added goals for the Kings, who scored all four of their goals in the second period. Kopitar and Drew Doughty each had two assists, and Pheonix Copley made 26 saves.
The Kings wrapped up the pre-All-Star portion of their schedule by going 3-2-1 on a season-high six-game trip and are in a points tie with Seattle atop the Pacific, though the Kraken have played four fewer games. Third-place Vegas is one point back and Edmonton is three points back with three games in hand on the Kings.
Aho has scored in five straight games as the Hurricanes extended their winning streak to six games and their points streak to nine games. Aho has a franchise-record eight career overtime goals.
