David Rittich makes 26 saves and Adrian Kempe scores for the first time since his return from injury in the Kings' 3-0 win over the New York Islanders.
David Rittich stopped 26 shots for his sixth career shutout, Adrian Kempe reached the 20-goal mark for the third straight season and the Kings beat New York 3-0 on Monday night to snap the Islanders' six-game winning streak. It was the Kings' fifth shutout this season and the second for Rittich. The Czech-born goalie made 26 saves in a 4-0 victory over Edmonton on Feb. 10, which was Jim Hiller’s first game as interim coach.
Ilya Sorokin made 22 saves. Kempe returned to the lineup on Saturday after missing five games due to an arm injury. He admitted to playing it a little bit safe in the 4-1 loss to Dallas, but showed more of a burst in his second game back. Jordan Spence passed to Kempe, who fired a wrist shot from the right faceoff circle that went over Sirokin's glove and into the short side of the net 7:14 into the second period. It was also the sixth time this season Kempe has scored the game-opening goal.
