Rapid Review: Notes and Highlights from Kings 2-1 Loss in Minnesota

February 22, 2023 By Andy Tonge

Sometimes you just have to take the loss and move on. With three big games ahead, that’s exactly what the Kings will need to after dropping a 2-1 contest in Minnesota on Tuesday.

Despite outshooting the Wild 34-20 on the night — including by a 14-4 margin in the middle frame — LA’s usually potent offense just couldn’t get anything by Minnesota goalie Filip Gustavsson for 59+ minutes. Only a goal by Anze Kopitar with 20 seconds remaining and regulation prevented a shutout.

Three Stats of The Game:

— All three goals in the game were scored at even-strength. While Minnesota had over 5 minutes of power play time, LA was limited to just 1:15 with the man advantage all night.

— Ryan Hartman scored both Wild goals, and hit the 100-goal mark in his career.

— Adrian Kempe assisted on the Kopitar goal, extending his point streak to six games. This matches his career-long set from Oct. 31, 2021 to Nov. 11, 2021.
