Even the best penalty-killing teams in the NHL are going to give up goals if they’re called on too many times.
The San Jose Sharks were forced to kill a season-high six penalties Thursday and allowed a power-play goal to Anze Kopitar in the second period in what became a 3-0 loss to the host Los Angeles Kings at Crypto.com Arena.
Phillip Danault also scored a second-period goal for the Kings, who beat the Sharks for the first time in four tries this season as the two teams completed their season series.
