The Kings’ penalty-killing unit has not been getting the job done lately. The two first-period power-play goals by San Jose on Thursday night marked the fifth consecutive game that an opponent has registered a goal with a man advantage.
San Jose, which began the game with the 22nd-ranked power play in the league, scored four power-play goals in three games against the Kings in the last 11 days.
In 70 games this season, the Kings have given up 52 goals short-handed.
