GamingTranscript
00:00Two teams looking starved for a win, and we are set to go.
00:26The Kings took things off on the right note by winning the opening drive.
00:31Moves it to Boré-Roulet. Sends it down low. Takes the pass and works the cycle down low.
00:40Moves it quickly over to Wallstrom. Oh, it's a score!
00:45And a great start for the whole team here!
00:49Oh, there's an old road. Chance favors the prepared mine.
00:52And I tell you, James, it just looked like they were ready for puck drop.
00:55And a quick strike gets the fans blaring.
00:58The players strike quickly here in this one, and they're already on the board. Less than a minute here.
01:13Well, that's how you start a game. I mean, some of the fans are in the corridor, and they hear the cheers, and they're not sure what happened.
01:18I mean, that's how fast it was, James. But that's how you start a game. That's how you dictate a case and send a message to your opponent.
01:23We're not letting you have anything tonight.
01:25He's climbing right to the front! Oh, a clutch save! Slides the puck across to Boré-Roulet.
01:53It's going off for a player for Cross Champion.
01:56When you're down a goal, you can't generate any offense if you're shorthanded.
02:00They're going to have to be opportunistic, find a way to kill it off, and then reset the momentum.
02:13St. Petersburg's bad advantage unit will take to the ice for the first time tonight.
02:18Well, everyone's fresh as they come out for their first power play of the game.
02:20They're going to have to find a way to really manipulate the defenders, move that puck around,
02:25but it will all start with winning the opening faceoff.
02:28Pass it up ahead.
02:30They'll want to clear the zone here while they're trying to kill off this penalty.
02:37Just going to leave the wall by Leferien.
02:39Oh, Lucano, that best save by Subban.
02:43The game has changed so much. It's so fast, and the athletes are so strong.
02:47I mean, the training that you have to undergo, whether it's in the gym or it's functional,
02:50you know that these guys are constantly working in small space areas, working on their games,
02:55working on their legs.
02:57Their foundation, the lower half, is so critical, and this is a perfect example.
03:02Pass back to the point.
03:05Moves close to the point.
03:06Quick pass to Duhaime.
03:12To the front!
03:13Loses possession after he takes a little hit.
03:16Here inside the defensive zone, they get the puck.
03:20Puts it on there, and he makes the save, and that'll have some hot sauce on that one.
03:26St. Petersburg's got a hold of the puck now.
03:28Let's go!
03:29And he slides it quickly to Sundquist.
03:32Broken up at center by Kyrton.
03:35The Bears look to start the transition game.
03:38Time!
03:39We got time!
03:41From the open ice, they came the line!
03:44Passes it over!
03:45And gets in front of that one.
03:47Well, he didn't feel me going there, and if you want to be on a pique,
03:49you've got to make sure that you get to those shooting lanes hard and fast.
03:53Los Angeles gets the puck near the Bears.
03:56Dishes it off!
03:57Yeah, that's a bad pass, and they'll be forced to do this over again.
04:02They are really buzzing here on the offensive end!
04:05Trying to clear the zone!
04:07And they succeed in getting it out!
04:09Shakes off the defender with some nifty moves!
04:13Tres to feed it over to Pyfield.
04:19Consider the win for the penalty killers as the power play fails to execute.
04:24Stopped by the goaltender!
04:25Here he is on the backhand!
04:27That opportunity is rejected.
04:29What a sequence!
04:30I mean, he's been outstanding making consecutive saves.
04:32I mean, his defense, they've got to start playing.
04:34Lots of hockey left to be played in this period.
04:36The Bears have taken a 1-0 lead.
04:42St. Petersburg is going to start with the puck on their own end.
04:45Slides the puck to Montt!
04:47Slides the puck to Montt!
04:48On the attack along the boards!
04:50The Kings gain possession!
04:52St. Petersburg's got a hold of it against the wall!
04:55Along the side, here they come through the neutral zone!
04:57Picked off by Moore!
04:59St. Petersburg's gain possession!
05:01Shots him down!
05:02That's a fantastic save by the goaltender, but this team has to do a better job of protecting
05:08the middle of the ice as high-danger scoring chances eventually go in!
05:10Here's a shot!
05:11Tremendous block on the play!
05:12Well, and the bench really erupts on that one, because otherwise it would have been in
05:17the back of the net!
05:18Whiff on that!
05:19Play is called for offside!
05:20Oh!
05:21Oh!
05:22Oh!
05:23Oh!
05:24Oh!
05:25Oh!
05:26Oh!
05:27Oh!
05:28Oh!
05:29Oh!
05:30Oh!
05:31Oh!
05:32Oh!
05:33Oh!
05:34Oh!
05:35Oh!
05:36Oh!
05:37Oh!
05:38Oh!
05:39Oh!
05:41Yeah!
05:42Kemper's found his rhythm here as we look at that last save.
05:44I mean, he has to be so on the mark right now, too positioned, to be able to make it.
05:49His read is perfect.
05:50He's tracking well.
05:51He has to be quick and athletic to make that one.
05:59Engine closer to the midway mark of this period, we've got a 1-0 game at this point.
06:04A 2-0 game to this point.
06:07Los Angeles wins it at center.
06:12St. Petersburg's regained possession of the puck.
06:16And he takes the feed.
06:20Wolfstrom's moving the puck through his own zone.
06:24Tries to get it to Thompson. And he sidesteps the check there.
06:28And the lane's clogged up blocking that.
06:32Right side takes the pass.
06:34At center ice now. He grabs the puck.
06:38Comes up with the stop.
06:40St. Petersburg's regained possession along the boards.
06:44Wolfman's got the puck.
06:46Here's a shot. Oh, and that's just another side of it.
06:48Well, this is a product of the game being so fast.
06:50James just wants to get rid of it and fires it wide.
06:54Tries to the crease.
06:56Oh, I think that went off his glass.
06:58It somehow stays out of the net.
07:00Oh, he just gets a piece of the kickkeeper out.
07:04As a defender, you love when your goaltender
07:06has this kind of rebound control.
07:08Makes your life so much easier.
07:10The Bears gain control the puck against the wall.
07:16Quick feed to Ben Denning.
07:20Stopped by the goaltender.
07:22Here's a block.
07:24He scores!
07:26And that's back-to-back goals!
07:28Well, nothing like touching the bench
07:30and putting your opponent on their heels
07:32and getting two in a row back-to-back.
07:34Here they come.
07:36We have all the time in the world to just tag this clapper
07:40on the low-stick side.
07:41That's a beautiful shot.
07:42Still lots of time left here in this frame.
07:50St. Petersburg's got a two-goal lead.
07:52They'd love to build on it.
07:54Los Angeles wins the face off in the neutral zone.
08:12They've got numbers here, here we go.
08:17Here's the result!
08:18Here we go!
08:20He scores!
08:22What a goal!
08:28I just love the effort to set up this goal, James.
08:31I mean, knowing that you have the puck on your stick,
08:33it's a real unselfish play because everything he is doing
08:36is calculated to manipulate his opponent
08:38because he wants to feed his teammate.
08:48Los Angeles has made it a one-goal game
08:56after a strike here in period number one.
08:58Well, after a tough start, they started to settle in, James,
09:01and you can certainly see it with their push
09:03and, of course, that counter getting themselves within one goal.
09:06Kovacar has won the drive center.
09:12Slings the feet in front, and it's blocked!
09:15Doe's got the puck down at his own end.
09:18Can't keep a hold of it after that hit.
09:21Takes the feet from the left side.
09:23Oh, smart heads up play to put that one away.
09:28Moves it to Lozon.
09:31St. Petersburg's got it across the line.
09:35Now that's a great heads up in the defensive zone
09:37to force the turnover.
09:41And he takes the pass.
09:42Kovacar is attempting to tie this game up
09:45and get the equalizer,
09:46and he's been feeling it all game long.
09:48He scored earlier,
09:49and everyone knows they want the puck on his stick.
09:54Cut it to the slot!
09:55St. Petersburg's got control of it now from the road end.
10:01Oh, we'll get some tired defenders as icing is the call.
10:04More than half the frame has been played here.
10:09Los Angeles still needs one more goal in order to even things up.
10:14Rips it!
10:16Oh, stunkled on the way to the end!
10:19And they'll get a breather as the go-tender covers it up.
10:25Officials getting ready to drop the puck.
10:27Puck possession so key in today's game.
10:32Play resumes here as he gets to drop inside of the offensive zone.
10:35An easy pass to have made by Subban.
10:39Emberson's taking it from his own end.
10:41Tuck-tuck!
11:03LA's won it.
11:05Now they're throwing the attack.
11:06Puck possession right off the draw.
11:07James against the very tired group who just iced the front.
11:10If you can just ice, the puck leads to an opportunity.
11:13Makes the save, but barely with that one.
11:18Clark's got the puck in his own zone.
11:20LA's ready to go on the attack.
11:23And that will stop.
11:25St. Petersburg's got possession of the puck.
11:29Scooped up along the wall by Ma.
11:33Shot, and he makes the save there.
11:35Moore's got it now deep inside his own end.
11:44St. Petersburg's got the puck inside the defensive zone.
11:48Taken by Leferriere.
11:51Sends it in deep.
11:54The Bears get a hold of the puck along the boards.
11:58Moves it quickly over to Emerson.
12:00Here's a chance on the attack.
12:02The backstores!
12:04And look at the reaction on the ice.
12:06His first of the season, and his teammates look just as pumped.
12:18You don't get many odd man rushes throughout a game, James.
12:21You have to capitalize on your opportunity.
12:23I thought they executed perfectly.
12:25They didn't overpass.
12:26The right player took the right shot.
12:27Los Angeles grabs the momentum in this one after that last goal here, Cheryl.
12:44Yeah, an impressive counter-strike here, James, after going down by one early in the first
12:49period.
12:50Now they're halfway through, and it looks like they found their rhythm or their legs.
12:53But I love the fact that they just stayed with it.
12:56They've been consistent in their play.
12:57They really trusted the process.
12:59And they found themselves getting a neutralizer here halfway through.
13:04Quick pass to Glenn Denning.
13:07Sacrifices the body.
13:08And all alone at the breakaway.
13:13Move to the ice about the play.
13:15This is a great play by the team that you anticipate and get across to make that save.
13:23And now he moves it quickly to Thompson.
13:26And a nice takeaway in the defensive end by CeCe.
13:29A spirited battle along the boards for the puck.
13:33Oh, and he cracks it perfectly in the offensive end.
13:38Heads it over.
13:42St. Petersburg's got it near the point.
13:45Takes a shot.
13:46Oh, and he steps into the line of fire and blocks that.
13:51Gets the puck in deep.
13:54The Bears gain possession along the wall.
13:56And he touches the puck check there.
14:03There's a shot.
14:04Big save by the goaltender.
14:06Goaltender covers it up.
14:08We get a whistle to slow things down.
14:13Here in the later stages of this period, we are all tied up in this one.
14:21The Kings will go to work here in the offensive zone.
14:23The Bears win, he won't win it.
14:27Here's a chance.
14:29A wild scussman win.
14:33Grabbed along the board by Ismail.
14:36Control.
14:37Oh, what a scuff on the play.
14:39Gets out of it with the paddle.
14:41This is an incredible athletic save, but this is all instinct.
14:44There's no time to put yourself in position.
14:46You just react.
14:47If you get there, you get there.
14:48What a great job.
14:50Centers get set as they're ready to drop the puck again.
14:52Takes the shot.
14:54Oh, I thought he was going to be beaten.
14:56And he somehow got a piece of that.
14:58Kovacar's got it.
15:11He'll go on the attack here in the offensive zone.
15:15Here's the shot.
15:17Makes the scene.
15:19Picked up along the boards by Schuterman.
15:22Slides the puck to Mott.
15:23Quick shot.
15:26Oh, how did he stop that one?
15:28Wow.
15:29To get your 50-50 tickets from the Grand Five tonight.
15:33The win-back draw in the third period.
15:40L.A.'s got the puck after winning the defensive zone face-off.
15:45Handles the pass.
15:47Shot.
15:48And chipped the one out of the net.
15:49It's not easy to be able to manipulate space and your defender at the same time
15:54and get these high-quality shots off.
15:56Togos and in front.
15:58There's the whistle as the puck stumper likes to hang on.
16:13Togos won the draw here in their own zone.
16:15Quick pass across to Perry.
16:20Inside his own end moves the puck.
16:23Steps across the blue line.
16:26Nearing the final 60 seconds here this first period.
16:31Puck scooped up by Thompson.
16:33Throated up in the neutral zone by Gano.
16:34Oh, it's some smooth skating to lose a defender there.
16:40Turned aside with a club by Subban.
16:42We got a whistle as the puck's frozen.
16:49Here in the late going of the frame.
16:52You can feel the energy in this crowd.
16:54It's a tie game.
16:56L.A.'s got it and they're on the attack.
16:59Makes the save.
17:00Cold and cold under pressure.
17:02Feeds the puck to Kostin.
17:06Moves it up through the middle from the right.
17:07Here's a chance, and that carries off a body of traffic.
17:13Moves been brought down and we're gonna get a penalty here.
17:15All right, time to get a clean sheet of ice here as period number one comes to an end.
17:24As you heard the horn sound, we'll be back with much, much more as this is going to be a fun.
17:29Set up.
17:30Time to start.
17:31We'll be going to play.
17:32Time to play.
17:33Time to play.
17:34Time to play.
17:34Time to play.
17:34Time to play.
17:35Time to play.
17:35Time to play.
17:36Time to play.
17:36Change the game.
17:37Time to play.
17:37Time to play.
17:38Time to play.
17:38T-shirt.
17:39Fans, don't forget to purchase your player T-shirt tonight, only at our T-store.

23:44Across the line and in the offensive zone.
23:47St. Petersburg is going to be able to kill a few seconds off now with the puck.
23:51And they get that puck down the ice.
23:54Works it across to Kopitar.
23:56Back to the point.
23:57Back to the point goes.
23:58Back to the point goes.
24:00Stopped from the goaltender.
24:01There's the whistle as the goalie hangs on.
24:07He's looking to win.
24:08He's looking to win this draw on this man advantage here.
24:12He's looking to win this guy.
24:13He's looking to win this guy.
24:14He's looking to win this guy.
24:17He's looking to win this guy.
24:18He's looking to win this guy.
24:19He's looking to win this guy.
24:22He's firing at Sanders, still getting to that shot, and he really ends.
24:25They score!
24:27A power play ball puts him in front.
24:29Well, there's critical junctures of the game where your specialty teams have to come up huge,
24:33and they do here, and they break the tie.
24:39Well, that's a really tough break for the tender, James.
24:42I mean, listen, when structure breaks down, and there's all kinds of stuff going on in front of you,
24:45you can't track, you can't get your eyes on the puck, and it winds up in the back of your net.
24:52Los Angeles has to be feeling good about their game right now, here in period number two,
25:10as they've gone ahead by one.
25:12Yeah, and it's not about playing safe anymore, it's about going after it, James,
25:15and it's an attack mentality.
25:16They've got the lead now.
25:18They've got to find a way to be first and urgent on the puck.
25:20Passes it over to Moore.
25:23Tap dances around the check.
25:25Close save!
25:27In front of the net, the goaltender covers up for a whistle on the play.
25:32Deneau's been so dialed in in confident, James, in particular in the offensive end.
25:36I mean, his puck touches are off the charts.
25:38He wants it, he trusts his skill set, and he's taken it to the net.
25:42Here's a shot, and that one's turned away, and it's kicked away.
25:48Picked up along the wall by Schoeneman.
25:56And he takes the dish.
25:58Takes a shot, and there's a glove save on the play.
26:02Kemper's going to cover up and opt for a whistle.
26:05Yeah, and I don't mind this play here.
26:06I mean, he hasn't been busy, right, James?
26:09And so sometimes you just want to physically engage, touch that puck, and make sure you're
26:12staying in it.
26:17Deneau's won the draw in his own end.
26:19Now let's see if they can clear it.
26:21Tries to get the puck over to Perry.
26:24Pokes it away here in the neutral zone.
26:27Harkins looks around.
26:29Here's a short pass to Dohm.
26:31Oh, and on the spool, the boy saves it!
26:34Kemper's made a great save, and even better as the redirects to the corner.
26:38Good turn, stop there.
26:42Back to the point, he's setting up.
26:44Stump by the goal, Taylor, giving a piece of that one.
26:47Horst looking in on the attack.
26:52Quick beat, Tassel.
26:57The Kings gain possession in their own end.
27:02Feeds the puck to Emerson.
27:05And they send it right back to him.
27:09Oh, Frank moves to sidestep the check.
27:11Moussa to Kopitar.
27:14Gaining speed through center, and here they come on the attack.
27:17Big stop from Thorne.
27:19The Bears have a hold of it in the defensive zone.
27:23St. Petersburg's in now.
27:24St. Petersburg's on the attack.
27:28Answers the call big time.
27:30What a stop by Kemper.
27:32I don't want you, I don't want you.
27:36I don't want you, I don't want you.
27:39And there's a save on the play.
27:41Quick pass to Sundquist.
27:41St. Petersburg's on the attack.
27:45Answers the call big time.
27:46Call big time.
27:47What a stop by Kemper.
27:49I don't want you, I don't need you.
27:50I don't want you, I don't need you.
27:51I don't want you, I don't need you.
27:52The Kings continue to lead here in this second period looking strong offensively.
28:18Los Angeles has won the defensive zone draw.
28:23Taken along the wall by Dowdy.
28:25Quick pass to Kopitar.
28:28Los Angeles on the attack.
28:31Huck picked up by Kopitar.
28:33Shots it down with the battle.
28:35What a stop.
28:36The shots come from the middle of the ice, and it has some heat on it, but he's ready and
28:40waiting for it.
28:41He's to position, and he makes the save.
28:43Oh, just about enough of that to keep it out.
28:45Los Angeles takes the puck behind their net.
28:50The Kings will play it in their own end.
28:55And he takes the feed.
28:57Scores!
28:59And that's four in a row, and they are rolling tonight.
29:03Well, the whole bench is rolling.
29:05Why?
29:05Because they're all getting goals and apples past the stats tonight.
29:08You can feel the energy as they're all standing up.
29:11They've gotten four in a row.
29:13LA's now up by two here in the second.
29:32And, you know, Cheryl, I really like their game tonight.
29:34Yeah, they've been fast in all three zones, and they've been skiing downhill in the offensive
29:39zone.
29:39That means they're attacking the net, and they're getting the majority of the shots, and they've
29:43been the origins.
29:44Skiing and skating.
29:45What a magic combination.
29:51The Bears have it now.
29:54Slides the puck ahead into the neutral zone.
29:56And there it is.
29:58Stopped by Kemper.
30:04Nearing the midway mark of the period.
30:07LA's really controlled the pace of play these last few minutes, leading by two.
30:12Tuck is dropped, and he wins the draw here in the defensive zone.
30:17Handles it along the blue line.
30:19Here's the shot.
30:20Well, that might be a save.
30:22Oh, that is a save, James.
30:23I don't think the goaltender would have gotten to position in time.
30:26He's able to take it away.
30:30Wow, what an incredible shift.
30:32They're so urgent all over the offensive zone.
30:34Coaches love these types of shifts.
30:36Oh, and one of his teammates was right in the shooting lane there.
30:41St. Petersburg's got the puck.
30:43And offside will get a reset here.
30:50LA's message was clear coming into this one.
30:53Lots of shots on net, and they lead here in this second.
30:59Caladius takes possession after that centerized face-off.
31:04Across the line, down the left wall.
31:07The smart heads that play to put that one away.
31:09Here's a short pass to Koopman.
31:13St. Petersburg's got it along the wall.
31:17Quick feed to Thompson.
31:19Here's a shot, and that's blocked from someone in front.
31:23The Kings in transition at center.
31:26St. Petersburg's got a hold of it along the wall.
31:30Carries it across the line.
31:32Moussa to Boroughboulay.
31:34Oh, it makes a save.
31:36Just got enough to keep it out.
31:38Kemper's been really sharp tonight, James.
31:41And just have a look at his day's percentage.
31:42And he's making the stops when he needs to.
31:44The man, his team's played well.
31:46They've got going north.
31:47They've created opportunities.
31:48And the reason why, they have a healthy lead.
31:51Look at this down the right wing.
31:52They're on the attack.
31:55And makes the strike.
31:58Los Angeles moves ahead with the puck.
32:00They've put the puck into the offensive end.
32:05St. Petersburg's got the puck along the wall.
32:09Puhayne's got it on the offensive end.
32:14Moves the puck.
32:16Oh, and there's a great save by Kemper.
32:19Moussa quickly over to Clark.
32:22L.A.'s got it against the boards.
32:23Purses it into the slot.
32:28Denies it!
32:29Rebound control is critical in the game of hockey.
32:32Putting it to the corner.
32:34And now the offensive player has to hound the puck.
32:39Slides it across.
32:41Oh, and he somehow got a little piece of it.
32:45And it stays out of the net.
32:47And the goaltender grabs that one for a whistle
32:58to try to slow things down here.
33:02Well past the midway mark of this period.
33:05The Kings have some breathing room
33:06as they lead by a pair.
33:08It's 4-2.
33:14Estabon's quick stick off the draw wins possession.
33:17Directs it on over to Turcotte.
33:21Takes it from the right side.
33:25And it says no!
33:27Takes the feed from the goaltender.
33:30Sends a pass over.
33:31Moves the puck to the side.
33:34Here's a chance to make something happen
33:36inside the neutral zone.
33:38Los Angeles looks to break out in their own end.
33:41Intercepts the pass at center.
33:43Let's go!
33:45Quick pass to Obey Curell.
33:47Oh, how did he get a piece of that?
33:51Slides it over to Clark.
33:53Slides the puck ahead to Turcotte.
33:56Oh, look at this!
33:59St. Petersburg's got the puck.
34:01St. Petersburg's got the puck along the boards.
34:20Stips inside the attacking zone down the left wing.
34:22Stops that one.
34:24Stops that one.
34:24Moves with the puck to the corner.
34:27Takes the feed.
34:29Blocking traffic.
34:31Los Angeles has it into the defensive end.
34:35Byfield's got him along the wing.
34:38And there's the save.
34:41St. Petersburg's got to hold him in against the wall.
34:43St. Petersburg's got to hold him in against the wall.
34:46Dishes it off!
34:50Feeds it over!
34:53The Kings can control the puck against the wall.
34:57Los Angeles with possession in their own zone.
35:01Dunks the puck in.
35:03Takes the puck behind the net.
35:06And that's some great pressure in the offensive end by Byfield.
35:09Well, this is a critical play.
35:11I mean, this is a high-danger area.
35:13And he's able to put his check out at the right time to be able to disrupt it.
35:17Not easy as a defender to have that kind of timing and an active stick.
35:21That's a goal!
35:23And that goes off a player in front.
35:25Thompson's made an incredible play right there.
35:27I mean, he's stumbling.
35:28He looks like he's going to fall almost.
35:29But he's off balance.
35:30And that's the key.
35:31The puck isn't exactly where he wants it.
35:33But he still manages to find a way to get a shot off.
35:36Here's a short pass to Ma.
35:39Slides it down.
35:44Release to Sundquist.
35:45And a great scene!
35:47Kemper is aggressive enough.
35:48The top of his crease makes an outstanding save from the slot.
35:52Quick feed to Wahlstrom.
35:54Under all sorts of pressure, trying to protect the puck.
36:01Sends the pass over.
36:04Slides it across to Bore Goulet.
36:06Oh, and they can't keep the puck in the zone.
36:11They'll be forced to tag up.
36:13Now he slides it up to Hilenius.
36:17Second intermission approaching quickly here.
36:20St. Petersburg's gained possession along the boards.
36:23Moves it to Lozog.
36:25Moves it over to Wahlstrom.
36:27And he tops it up with a pass!
36:28St. Petersburg's got just a few seconds left here with the puck.
36:34Moves it quickly over to Hilenius.
36:37St. Petersburg's got a hold of the puck now.
36:41There's the whistle icing the call.
36:43Big face off looming.
36:44The Kings continue to lead here in the late stages of this second period.
36:57Tindai has got it.
36:58Now they'll look to see what they can do offensively.
37:01And there's the horn bringing the second period to an end.
37:10All right, they say three is the magic number.
37:12Period number three is coming up next.
37:14Tindai has got a hold of the puck in the middle of the game trial.
37:19Bring three non-perishable from the top of us.
37:21And you can proceed on the board of the team for the starter.
37:38Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:39Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:41Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:42Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:43Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:44Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:45Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:46Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:47Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:48Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:49Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:50Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:51Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:52Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:53Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:54Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:55Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:56Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
37:57Tindai has got a hold of the puck.
43:28I mean, you got to protect the house,
43:30especially when it's a great threat shot like that,
43:32and he finds a way to get in front of that and quick.
43:35St. Petersburg's got it in the neutral zone.
43:40With possession along the wall.
43:44Here's a case.
43:45Oh, and he gets a piece of that one to keep it out.
43:49The more the goal, he's dialed in
43:50when he leaves your extra puck to the corner.
43:52And that's out of reach and out of the offensive zone.
43:56The Bears take it across the line.
43:58Cross-up possession of the puck.
44:04Takes the feed.
44:06The Bears look around near the point.
44:13Goes across the point.
44:15Oh, what a save in front!
44:17Stooped up along the wall by Parkfield.
44:20Knocks the puck away on the open ice.
44:22St. Petersburg's looking to break out.
44:27And that's picked up by Kopitar.
44:30Good heads up play in the defensive zone.
44:34Slides it across to Harkins.
44:38And that's broken up by Deneau.
44:40Grabs control of it on the point.
44:42Oh, tremendous stop of the play!
44:48Hammer's a shot!
44:49And that's blocked away.
44:50Gets the full use of a stick on the poker chip.
44:53And now it's grabbed by Liza.
44:55Takes it up center.
44:57Parkins is tripped up, and we've got a penalty coming up.
45:01Here comes the call.
45:03Gowdy's called for tripping.
45:06He's off to the box.
45:07Sometimes it's just a product of keeping your feet moving.
45:10And when you reach and you take your opponent's feet out,
45:12you're gonna get the two minutes for tripping.
45:21St. Petersburg's got another opportunity here on the man advantage.
45:24They haven't scored yet in the game on the power play,
45:27but no need to get frustrated.
45:28They all win a different skill set.
45:30It's the reason why they're out here.
45:34He sees the pass.
45:35What the stop.
45:37Leferriere's lugging the puck.
45:42Faces shot.
45:43Denied by the goaltender.
45:45Quick pass to Sundquist.
45:47Oh, and he tracks it perfectly in the offensive end.
45:50That's blocked by Subban.
45:53St. Petersburg's got it in their own zone.
45:58Faces it on the end.
46:01Denied by the goaltender.
46:04And they manage to clear it.
46:08Grabs the puck and moves on out here at this man advantage.
46:12Takes the pass.
46:15I don't think anybody was hanging on to the puck after that hit.
46:20LA's crossed the line and on the attack.
46:23Faces it.
46:24Stopped with ease.
46:26Grabbed around the board by Obey Cuvel.
46:29Dished on over to Wahlstrom.
46:34Takes a shot.
46:35Oh, there's a blocker on it.
46:36What a stop by St. Petersburg.
46:39St. Petersburg's got possession of the puck.
46:41And that slides right up to Cedar Rice.
46:45He handles the puck.
46:47Puts it on net.
46:48Oh, and somehow he gets a sliver of it and keeps it on Bane.
46:53Takes the shot.
46:54He handles that one.
46:55That one.
47:01Pepe's been dancing with the puck on his stick all night long here.
47:03I really feel like he's been a driver of play.
47:06He's had multiple good looks on net and finally capitalizes.
47:10Love that he didn't get frustrated.
47:12Love that he continued to get to the pockets on the ice.
47:14And he gets rewarded for it.
47:27Essaymont's ready for the draw on this man advantage.
47:29St. Petersburg's won the faceoff.
47:40Oh, and the answer on that one.
47:43Here's the chance to clear the puck from his own end.
47:48The Bears gain possession.
47:50Yep, yep.
47:52Working the puck deep inside their own end.
47:54Oh, my God.
47:56Slides it across.
47:58Here's the shot.
48:00Fantastic seed.
48:02Well, these are the saves when you know that the goaltender has dialed in, James.
48:05The ability to get to the top of the piece and be square to the shooter.
48:08That's a great save.
48:10The teams are now back to even strength as the power play has expired.
48:14That's a great job by the TK, James.
48:16Protecting the lead.
48:17And the pressure's really on late in the game.
48:19And you put your players out there that can handle it and embrace it.
48:22And this group certainly did.
48:23And it's the pass up center.
48:24And it's the pass up center.
48:29Angles it over to Thompson.
48:33Picked up along the boards by Pulmitar.
48:37Byfield's carrying it ahead.
48:39St. Petersburg's got control of it now from the road end.
48:41Exploring options here inside the defensive zone.
48:46Puts to the front.
48:48Brings the puck to the slot.
48:50That's the point. That's the point.
48:52Got his stick.
48:53And that's blocked.
48:55Slides the puck over.
48:57Los Angeles plays it against the boards.
48:59St. Petersburg's got the puck.
49:00Good stand-up hit.
49:01Kuck.
49:02Kuck.
49:03With the stop.
49:04L.A.'s got the puck at the defensive end.
49:06Cross it up on the play.
49:08Puck grabbed by Anderson.
49:09Sends it over to Kempe.
49:11Takes the pass through the middle.
49:12They've got some momentum here.
49:14Gives up the body for the block.
49:16And he takes the feed.
49:19Back, back, back, back.
49:22Moves inside.
49:23Makes the save and he's got a blocker on it.
49:26The goal-tenders have the last line of defense for a reason.
49:41This time he bailes his team out.
49:42He bails his team out.
49:44Grabs the puck here in the neutral zone.
49:47Taken by Glenn Denning.
49:53There's a shot, and the puck fangs off the mound.
49:56What a fantastic save from a high-danger scoring area, James.
50:00I mean, he's bailing his team out.
50:02They have to do a better job of protecting the middle of the ice.
50:05Tommel's got it deep in the offensive end.
50:09Here in the corner, he grabs the puck.
50:11Oh, what a save on the redirect.
50:14It's amazing to me how he always looks like he's in the right position
50:17because he tracks and reads the...
50:19Scores!
50:20Strips it off the puck!
50:23We almost did a double-take there, James.
50:26And you hear that down.
50:27Sometimes you think it's out, but this one goes in.
50:30How many times have you seen this before?
50:32The play comes back in your own zone.
50:34There's a scoring chance that they're unable to convert on it.
50:36You get pulling the other way, and you're able to execute.
50:39It really is a two-under-foot game.
50:52St. Petersburg's got one back here in the third.
50:54Now can they find another, Cheryl?
50:56You need to find another gear.
50:58When you're pressing, you have your opponent on your heels.
51:00You have to try and find a way to bury them and build.
51:03And that's what they've got to do right off the hop.
51:05They're on this face-off.
51:06Predirected on the stick!
51:08Shuts him down!
51:10Passes on over to Sundquist.
51:13Here's a short pass to Duhaime.
51:15And he takes the pass.
51:20Look at him go!
51:21Gets in front of him!
51:23Los Angeles has the puck.
51:27Look at that, and he's creating a whole lot of space there!
51:30Oh, he walks away with the stick!
51:33Oh, no!
51:34Look as it goes off the outside of the post!
51:37The Kings lead in this game doesn't get extended,
51:39and then they would have loved that one for the extra pushing,
51:42but it goes off the post and out.
51:44Puts the puck on that, and that's blocked!
51:47Picked up along the wall by Mock!
51:53Takes that pass back to the point!
51:55That goes off the twink!
51:57And that's taken away at the offensive end by Sundquist!
52:00Big time stop there!
52:04This is the best part of the game.
52:05It's really tight.
52:06It's down the stretch.
52:07One mistake either way will be the difference maker.
52:12And the puck departs the zone.
52:14The Kings take it along the wall!
52:17St. Petersburg's got the puck along the boards!
52:21Pass to Wahlstrom!
52:23Looking to make something happen in the offensive zone!
52:29LA's looking to break out of their own end!
52:32St. Petersburg's got a hold of it along the wall!
52:35Passes it over!
52:38Oh, and a miss flyer as that goes right out of the zone!
52:42Stoops up the puck here!
52:45Rootman's got it in the defensive end!
52:48Quick shot!
52:50And it banks off a stick in traffic!
52:53Near the block!
52:56Takes a shot!
52:58Genies the chance by blocking it!
53:00Tough save and a hobbit serve!
53:03San Jose's coming up next on the schedule,
53:06and these two teams,
53:08it doesn't matter where they are in the schedule,
53:10where they are in the standings,
53:12always a good contest!
53:13I'm looking forward to that one!
53:15The Kings win the draw here in their own end!
53:18Here they come up along the wing!
53:21Take it along the wall by Jubelin!
53:25And he moves the puck back inside his own end!
53:29And a good smack with the stick to get it down!
53:32Lets it go!
53:36Oh!
53:37It stays out!
53:38He got a piece of that one!
53:40And he moves it up to Kempe!
53:42Great poke check on the reach!
53:44St. Petersburg's got the puck inside the defensive zone!
53:49Takes the feed in the middle of the ice!
53:53Makes a move in front!
53:58Way too much congestion blocks that!
54:01LA's moving the puck through center ice!
54:04Gaining steam here on the attack!
54:07Sidesteps the check!
54:09And a great seed!
54:11That's a great save!
54:13But the goaltender had to get out to the top of his crease,
54:15take away all the ice and make himself as big as possible!
54:21On the attack into the offensive end, right off the gut!
54:25Oh!
54:26What a piece of that!
54:28Shots him down!
54:30We're gonna face off after the puck stays covered up!
54:36Jubin's having a really efficient game right now, James!
54:39I mean, he's had to make many big saves throughout the game!
54:42And the timeliness of them can really give momentum to your team!
54:45And he has!
54:46I mean, just look at the ones that he has made!
54:48It's not necessarily quantity, but it's all about quality!
54:51He's been excellent!
54:52Los Angeles is looking to close things out late in this third period!
55:03They have been the dominant team offensively tonight!
55:06He's got the puck, and he'll go on the attack!
55:10And a denial there!
55:12Subban's gonna bounce on the puck to get a whistle here!
55:16And there's a strategy to this one!
55:18It is, and it's a good strategy!
55:20Listen, they've been outplayed, and he's been phenomenal in the net!
55:24And every play matters, and the right one right now is to bounce on this puck,
55:28get the whistle, and reset the tone in your own zone!
55:31Still a tight one here as we approach the final minute of the third!
55:36Tries to feed it over to Shinneman!
55:40Oh, just a great heads-up play by Turcotte!
55:45Handles the pass!
55:47Takes a shot!
55:48And the goaltender comes up with a piece of it to keep it out of the net!
55:52Confer's got great rebound control and just pushes that out of his way!
55:56Los Angeles plays it along the boards!
56:00Pucks scooped up by Lindegh!
56:02Moesler out along the half-wall!
56:05And he takes the dish!
56:10And that's broken out!
56:12Takes the puck along the boards!
56:18Stuck by the goaltender!
56:20And will get the whistle after the goaltender hangs on!
56:23A critical draw here!
56:28At the draw they take possession!
56:33Quick feed to Pyfield!
56:37And he takes the feed!
56:40Comes up with the block!
56:42Absolutely fearless!
56:44Battle along the boards!
56:46Back to the blue line!
56:49Back to the blue line!
56:51And this one is all over as the final horn sounds!
56:56Well, from a moral victory standpoint, they certainly were in this one!
57:00Probably one of their best efforts in the last few games!
57:02But you don't get points for moral W's!
57:04Yeah, you don't, James!
57:05And this is a really tough one to swallow for them!
57:08I mean, they played a great game right from the start,
57:10but found themselves getting into a deficit that they weren't able to crawl back from!
57:14So this is a real tough one!
57:15They have to find a way to reset!
57:17And it's feeling pretty heavy right now!
57:19Well, that'll do it for all of us here at EA Sports!
57:22I'm James Stavalski, and we will see you next time from ringside!
57:27This will be a bad game for me!
57:28Else totes!
