Against Edmonton, Los Angeles was sharp defensively and got some timely scoring to put the game in the win column Saturday night. The Kings held a 10-5 advantage in shots on goal in the opening period of play with neither team scoring, keeping the game scoreless after 20 minutes of play. Los Angeles was outshot 11-8 in the second period but outscored Edmonton 2-0 to lead by that margin at the second intermission. Pierre-Luc Dubois opened the scoring with a power play goal, his 11th of the season, at 2:38 off assists from Jordan Spence and Trevor Moore. Less than a minute later, at 3:37, Trevor Lewis made it a 2-0 game with his seventh goal of the year off an assist from Quinton Byfield. In the third period, Los Angeles was outshot 10-8 and outscored the Oilers 2-0 to put the game away. Byfield extended to a 3-0 lead with his 15th goal of the season at 7:06 off assists from Vladislav Gavrikov and Matt Roy. Later in the period, Byfield sco red his second of the night and 16th of the year, into an empty net, at 17:18 off assists from Anze Kopitar and Adrian Kempe. David Rittich made 26 saves to record a shutout for the Kings in a game where the shots were even at 26. He’s likely to be between the pipes again for this contest.
