The Los Angeles Kings have won the first 2 games in St. Louis in this second round match up, but now they get a taste of home ice for the next two games of this series. The Kings started quickly as Justin Williams scored at 13:33 of the 1st period, on a shot that would have gone wide of the net, but hit the inside of Brian Elliott’s pad, and squeaked into the net, 1-0 Kings. A minute into the 2nd period, Chris Stewart scored with a short side backhand on Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick, and the game was tied at 1. However, less than a minute later, Dwight King got a break, and scored with a wrist shot, giving the Kings a 1-goal lead. At the 10:29 mark of the 2nd period, Mike Richards scored a power play goal with a shot from the side of Brian Elliot, which gave the Kings a 3-1 lead. The Blues didn’t quit though and at 4:35 of the 3rd period, Chris Stewart scored his 2nd of the game when Jonathan Quick couldn’t cover the rebound, which tightened the game and the Kings had a 1 goal lead. Just under 4 minutes later, a 2 on 2 rush resulted in Richards passing to the second layer of offense and a Drew Doughty one-timer gave the Kings a 4-2 lead over the Blues. The Kings managed to take an overwhelming 3-0 lead over the St. Louis Blues, and hopefully can sweep them Sunday at the Staples Center.
