Kings finish strong to beat Penguins, 5-2
Jarrett Stoll scored the go-ahead goal with 7:51 to play, and the Los Angeles Kings roared from behind with a four-goal third period in a 5-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night. Jonathan Quick made 21 saves in a standout performance for the Kings, who ended the Penguins' season-opening, seven-game road winning streak. NHL scoring leader Anze Kopitar's second goal tied it early in the third for the Kings, who improved to 6-0-2 in their last eight games for the club's longest point streak since November 2000.
