Anze Kopitar scores with 1:22 left in regulation to force overtime before the Kings fall in a nine-round shootout to the Carolina Hurricanes in a 6-5 loss.
Jordan Martinook scored in the ninth round of the shootout, and the Carolina Hurricanes blew a three-goal lead before hanging on for a 6-5 victory over the Kings on Saturday night. Sebastian Aho set a franchise record with his 17th short-handed goal before scoring again in the shootout for the Hurricanes, who opened a six-game road trip by wasting a three-goal lead midway through the second period and taking eight minor penalties.
Although Martinook has never scored more than 15 goals in a season, his teammates weren't surprised by his poise on the puck. “I’ve seen him do that move in practice on me,” Andersen said. “I think he’s more skilled than people give him credit for. He provides a lot of energy for us, and he can score. So it was cool to see him finish it for us like that.
