The Los Angeles Kings didn't allow themselves to look past the Montreal Canadiens to an even more significant game in a couple of days. Anze Kopitar and Tanner Pearson scored less than 3 minutes apart early in the first period and Dwight King scored on a breakaway in the third, leading the Kings to a 3-2 victory Thursday night. The victory kept Los Angeles tied for the Pacific Division lead with the Anaheim Ducks, who come to Staples Center for a Saturday matinee against their Southern California rivals after tying a franchise record with their 10th straight victory Thursday night at Arizona.
