The Kings played their second game in a 24-hour span, handing Detroit their second straight loss.

LOS ANGELES –– The schedule was finally in the Kings’ favor and they took full advantage by summarily dispatching the weary Detroit Red Wings, 4-1, at Crypto.com Arena on Saturday evening.
Jacob Moverare made his season debut on defense instead of the injured Caleb Jones. Alex Turcotte’s return to the lineup from an upper-body injury including Jeannot’s return from a three-game suspension shuffled forward lines, leading to Andre Lee’s reassignment to the minors. Though Larkin’s pivoting backhand bid as he fell to the ice broke up Rittich’s shutout with 1:27 remaining in the match, Kempe bookended the third period with an empty-net goal in the final minute and a breakaway just 15 seconds into the closing frame. Kempe scored both goals in a 4-2 loss to Colorado on Wednesday. His four goals in two games brought his total to nine, tying Alex Laferriere for the team lead.
With 1:33 left in the period, a Detroit miscue in the Kings’ zone sent Lewis and Jeannot off on a two-on-one counterattack. Lewis waited out a diving Jeff Petry to find Jeannot at the back post for a rapid redirection. Jeannot scored his second goal as a King in his return from a three-game suspension for an illegal check to the head of Vancouver’s Brock Boeser.
