Sheldon Keefe’s own run of success with goal challenges kept going when his video assistants spotted an offside to wipe out a Kings goal on the major power play.But Nick Robertson’s bid for full-time work might have hit another wall with a long-term injury.

The Kings had a couple of slot drives denied by Samsonov one their first power play with Mark Giordano off to keep the first period 0-0.Article content While the Leafs limited their response to Roy to verbal scolding, Zach Aston-Reese helped ignite the building when he stepped into Gabriel Vilardi with the puck at the L.A. forward’s feet.
