Los Angeles Kings right wing Viktor Arvidsson celebrates with teammates after scoring during the second period of an NHL hockey game against the Chicago Blackhawks Thursday, April 18, 2024, in Los Angeles. Chicago Blackhawks right wing Joey Anderson defends against Los Angeles Kings defenseman Jordan Spence during the first period of an NHL hockey game Thursday, April 18, 2024, in Los Angeles.
“It’s hard not to think about the whole picture,” Los Angeles captain Anze Kopitar said. “I guess we kind of knew what the score was going out for the third period, and all that stuff. Didn’t plan on going down one goal, but I guess we got the job done in the end, and we’re going back to Edmonton.”Frank Nazar scores on first shot in NHL debut with Chicago Blackhawks
“We definitely want to beat them now,” said Quinton Byfield, who scored his 20th goal. “I think we owe them, but they’re a really good team. They added a lot of great pieces at the deadline, so they’re going to be a tough out, for sure. But they’re a team that we really want to beat.” “Well, we got it done, right?” Kings coach Jim Hiller said. “I thought their goalie played very well. It ended up being close because we gave them some chances in the third period. Didn’t think it should have been a close game. We had to gather ourselves and score some big goals.”Lukas Reichel also scored and Arvid Soderblom stopped 31 shots for the Blackhawks, who lost their sixth consecutive game to finish with the second-fewest points in the NHL for the second consecutive season.
After its fourth consecutive spring without a playoff berth, Chicago will have the second-best odds to win the upcoming draft lottery.
