Final: Kings 3, Florida 2
Dustin Brown scored in transition at 11:23 in the third period to put the Kings up by two goals again. Florida turned the puck over in the Kings zone, and Brown capitalized on the turnover. Florida scored with 50 seconds left on a shorthanded goal by Nathan Horton.
The Kings ended a five-game winless streak with the victory.

Not even close to a breakaway but a great goal none the less. Go Kings
I hope we never see LaBarby again, because this is what goaltending is all about. Sure he let a soft one go in, but he made the big saves when he had to.
Last 2 games, you can feel it. A team plays so much better when you have goalie who knows what he's doing.
POS #1 star while playing on the 4th line. Put him on the top line and see what'll happen. TM get your head out of your rectum.
I glad the Kings won the game, and ended the 5 game skid. But, reality check time. That was the battle for last place in the league. FLA had 9 points going in, the Kings had 8. Congrat's to LA, they've moved up to 2nd worst...
Driving home from work listening to the pregame, I remembered something that Rich (I think) posted a few games ago about a pool for when the glass would be broken. I mentally selected 4:32 in the third - I wish I had posted it. The glass broke at 4:40 in the third.
Man I feel bad for Ersberg the first time he has a bad game.
One horrible goal and one screened tonight. He was lucky the Kings actually scored more than one goal.
