Goals are good? They certainly are, especially if you’re looking to win a hockey game.
Saturday night, the Kings kicked off a five-game road trip with a bang — racking up seven goals to down the Wild. It wasn’t quite a similar thrill for the home team, as Minnesota has now given up seven goals in back-to-back games to open their 2022-23 season (following a 7-3 loss to the Rangers earlier in the week).

wasn't kidding when I said krazy W:
For the first time since Dec. 18, 2010, seven different Kings skaters recorded multi-point games (Anderson, 0-2=2; Fiala, 1-2=3; Iafallo, 1-1=2; Kempe, 2-1=3; Kopitar, 0-3=3; Roy, 1-1=2; Vilardi, 1-1=2).
