FINAL – Kings 1, Bruins 4 – Laferriere, Anderson, Laviolette

The LA Kings dropped their sixth consecutive game to start the season, falling 4-1 to the Boston Bruins on Saturday night at Crypto.com Arena. Alex Laferriere opened the scoring for Los Angeles just 31 seconds into the contest, assisted by Adrian Kempe and Brandt Clarke. However, David Pastrnak equalized for Boston early in the second period on a transition rush.

Boston seized control late in the third period when Maxim Khusnutdinov scored into an open net after an uncontrolled rebound from goaltender Anton Forsberg. Elias Lindholm and JJ Peterka added two empty-net goals in the final minutes to seal the Bruins' victory. The game also marked head coach Peter Laviolette's 1,600th career regular-season NHL contest.
