Anze Kopitar 2nd goal. Los Angeles Kings vs Buffalo Sabres 2/17/2018
BUFFALO -- Anze Kopitar and rookie Michael Amadio each scored twice for the Los Angeles Kings in a 4-2 win against the Buffalo Sabres at KeyBank Center on Saturday, their first win in Buffalo since Feb. 21, 2003. Jonathan Quick made 33 saves for the Kings (31-22-5), who ended a three-game losing streak and trail the Anaheim Ducks by two points for third place in the Pacific Division. "I don't think we were worried about the 15-year drought in here, but we had a three-game slide that we certainly wanted to stop," Kopitar said. "I thought today we came out ready to play, and I think in the end we definitely made it a little too interesting for our liking, but it is what it is. The guys battled hard, getting the first goal is huge, and then we followed it up with a few more. I thought it was a pretty good game on our part." "If you want to win games and be successful in this league, you've got to find a way to get a good start and maintain that for 60 minutes," Buffalo forward Jason Pominville said. "At no point in time on their side they probably felt any heat early on, maybe a little bit toward the end." Amadio gave the Kings a 1-0 lead at 11:26 of the first period when he took a shot that went off the skate of goaltender Robin Lehner. "I thought the start of the game was different and was a big reason we won the game," Kings coach John Stevens said. "I thought we did a lot of good things. It wasn't just the first line, I thought we had a really good rotation through our lineup where guys were really playing fast, we got pucks up to speed, and we were getting pucks in behind, and we create a lot off our forecheck early in the game, which was good to see." The Kings scored on three consecutive shots in a 5:33 span of the second period. Kopitar made it 2-0 at 12:02. Dustin Brown picked up the puck after a turnover by Sabres forward Benoit Pouliot and fed Kopitar, who deked and scored on a backhand. Kopitar scored at 16:06 when he took a pass from Alex Iafallo and beat Lehner through the five-hole for his 25th goal and a 3-0 lead. Amadio's second goal came at 17:35 and made it 4-0. He took a wrist shot from the slot for his fourth of the season. Lehner made 26 saves through two periods; Chad Johnson played the third period and made six saves. Scandella made it 4-1 with a slap shot 30 seconds into the third period. Ristolainen put a loose puck in at 16:42 to make it 4-2. "We started playing our game," Scandella said of the third period, when the Sabres outshot the Kings 18-6. "We started getting pucks behind them, playing physical. Once we play our game, when we establish our game, we have a great team here. We move the puck well, we're fast, but when we don't do that we look slow, wasting energy, always backchecking and playing defense."
