The Kings will play their fourth game in six days with a matinee showdown at Madison Square Garden
During their most recent homestand, the Kings had also seen some edges evaporate, most notably a 5-1 advantage that turned into a 6-5 squeaker that“Enough is enough, it’s at that point. We’re all good players here, we all can play defense and we’ve got to learn how to keep playing with the lead and we played a little better tonight,” said center Phillip Danault, who opened the scoring Friday.
“They scored their second off [a skate], nothing we can do in that situation, but I was most impressed with what happened after that,” McLellan said. “We stayed calm, we checked very well, we blocked shots, won faceoffs, got the clears when we needed to, got off the ice when we needed to and got fresh guys out. We played like a team that can win in those situations.”
To come nearer to returning to that level of competition, McLellan and his group have been emphasizing focus and consistency in attempting to re-establish themselves as one of the premiere shutdown teams in the NHL. Overall, their points percentage when scoring first has risen from .763 to .781. Their record when leading at the first intermission is almost identical to last season’s and their points percentage when leading through two periods has improved from .865 to .885.
“It’s tight and it’s gonna be tight from here on out,” center Anze Kopitar said after the overtime loss in Newark. “It’ll be tight games and one-goal games for the most part, so we have to figure out how to win these.”
