Kings blows another big lead and loses OT to Minnesota – Daily News

Date:

Their season may be only two games old, but Kings already has some tips on how to steal defeat from the chin of victory.

In the second straight-out, a 3-1 second break advantage was lost to Minnesota Wild at Staples Center on Saturday night in a 4-3 extra time.

“We played almost the same for two games in a row, so we shouldn’t let one go,” said Todd McClellan.

Saturday’s defeat featured Minnesota’s goal, with 1.4 seconds remaining in regulation and 11 seconds in the extended game.

When asked about his words to the team after the match, McClellan was frank: “There was nothing.”

Forwards Gabriel Villadi, Blake Risotte and Andreas Atanasiu scored the Kings goal, and rejuvenated Jeff Carter provided two assists. Jonathan Quick combined thrilling, timely and routine saves, saving 40 out of 44 in total and not getting hurt again behind a busy penalty killing unit.
