NHL Highlights | Hurricanes vs. Kings – October 18, 2025

And the puck drop is brought to you by Theodore Robins Ford. And for the Kings, it is by field are Mia and Kia against Stall Kerier and Martin. Can the Kings score 12 seconds in? Stall behind the goal. And how did that go in with everyone here at Crypto.com Arena? Right from the drop of the puck, the Hurricanes just get it going and watch this speed here. pick it up, support, and then everyone focuses on the puck carrier and no one focuses on the wide open man in behind. I was just mentioning, John, the Kings are great on their man-on-man coverage, especially in the defensive zone. And right there, it breaks down with three guys going to the puck side of the net. So, a tough start to say the least, as Forsberg handles this one. The veteran Stall gets his second of the year at the I know what’s dangerous in behind you. And the Kings could not pick it up and it cost him. Here’s a shot from the point right on. Stopped by Forestber. It’s loose to the line. Gosh bear the drive blocked in front. Jim mentioned in the open now Chatfield with it. Shoots it and off the blocker of Forsber in center and they score. Stall again trickles in and he has made it two nothing. So with all the things you hope to accomplish for the Kings, their identity is solid defensive zone play on goal number one and then wide open man on goal number two. The Kings have the coverage but then yeah two Kings go to one man in behind. There is the breakdown. The look at see Helenius leaves the front of the net. He thought that perhaps Edmonson was going to be around but no one was around. And then the one time is available right there. You can see at the end right there you know on the for check now steals the puck in front of more wide opener shot and a save by busy and you always do have the option and Jim Hiller’s done it many times before where you start mixing things around and again probably the thought process you want to keep and fial together but knocks Walker off the pucko here’s a twoon one Kasmeco right in waiting shoots it and a save by busy. Krisco does a good job. He gains the center. Take that center. Get there. Pulls and drags and then stick and now the Russian on the wall trying to make a play and then Kempe had it knocked away. Look out. Cookie has a breakaway. Two on actually with Robinson and he scores. And Cook gets his first of the year on a twoon breakaway. It’s three nothing. Now the breakdowns have been fatal for the Kings tonight, but Miller got most of it. Kings do not keep it in. No one in support. You see the opening of the stick right there by Cookami. Watch this right here. He’ll open. That’s the fake. Not really a bite there by. So it’s now 3 nothing. The goal at 343. Cookami from Miller. Kings come in. A shot by Moore. Moore gets it again. shift and he scores. More a blast and that cuts the lead to 3-1. [Music] A goal is always good timing, but the the timing of this goal might be more important the way things happen. Carolina allows a shot. There’s a screen in front though. Look at the jump of Fogle. That certainly prevented Busting from finding the puck. Another look from down low. Great look right there where you can understand the goal. He saw it but he couldn’t feel his comfort. And the Hurricanes who scored earlier on a twoon break. Hall winding up now cuts in front. Stan Coven tips it. Good save by Forsber. And then Dumlan. That pass picked off intended for Fogle. Eers races in. shoots it and a good stop by Forsber. If you cut down the angle, there’s not a lot of room. Here’s a shot from the line. That’s off the stick of the goalender. Rebound backhander right on by Deno and a save by Busy. Oh, what a chance there by Deno. Last five minutes of the game again. The Kings get the puck to the net once and then the rebound gets there twice. Watch. He doesn’t really have a lot of options here. Kicks it and it’s just too tight. It’s just one of those situations where you couldn’t get further away from the goalender and then you can hoist the puck like Kings have had the last six shots on goal. Their first power play tonight. They win the face off and now played by Moore. Keep shot right in front and they score. Chris Mo tips in a power play goal and the Kings are right back in it. Peri face off is picked up right there. Not one cleaning, but you get watch this here. When the shot comes in, it’s deflected off to the side. The one thing Biffield does right here, he lets it go all the way through to his backand and then one touches it across and you just no matter how fast you are, no matter how smart you are with your stick, you got to follow up the pressure. Four guys together. Kings do have one short-handed goal this year. Now the Hurricanes come in. Eers with it in front and what a save by Forsber. Great passing and Blake with the golden opportunity for the Hurricanes. We’ll get a good look at it here. Watch Forsber. He’s going to have to shift. One move, one push. And there square shoulders. He didn’t get sideways. He took a little of a a snow bath too there in the crease as a couple guys were stopping up. So, we’ve talked about high danger opportunities. Five on three for the first 46 seconds of the third period. And the faceoff is won by Deno and cleared down by Anderson who’s on looking for a tip in. Andre Miller again. Oh, right in front. Backhander scooped up by Forsber. Good. Watch how Forsber keeps his glove hand free and active. He had everything down low and that modern-day technique of goalenders. They don’t open up the glove. The glove is already open. Only 23 years old. Nice. Kings break it up. More ahead for Biffield. He storms in. Byfield to the net. Grab chance and Bucky got over. Made a good save. And that was close. And Kings can’t get there in time. And now a twoon one the other way. Robinson to the net. What a save by Forsber. He got over and got his arm up on a twoon one. Here’s Forsber. Yeah, he came AC much earlier. He did the glove the other way and off the stick of Forsber. Kings with it. Played ahead by Clark. Kazako waiting now. Shoots it. Blocked. Rebound back right on by Leier. And what a We’ll see the last save first. It doesn’t get through, but then the goalender is able to readjust, but then he gets the back. Yeah. Glove over top of the pad. And then Martin bothered by Dumalan. Kinami gets it. Sends it back. Walker’s wide open. He comes in. A shot and a pad saved by Forsber. Mad scramble in front and the Kings on it. Offensive zone face off of the Kings, but they lose it in FIA ahead now for Kempe. He comes in, crisscrosses, FIA gets it, shoots, and he scores. What a shot by FIA. And the Kings have come all the way back and tied the game at three. [Applause] The execution here is just perfect. Neutral zone, then the crisscross. The Kings don’t win the drop, but they get the puck. Here it is. Cross. Crisscross. Watch the blocker right here. Adrien Kempe like a fullback. He just keeps going forward the defender and then over the pad under the blocker. Mike Riley starts to stand up. He can’t stand up. And Kemp is not pushing him off in an interference mode. He’s just continuing his own. And Drew Dowy from center ice. Why not try that long shot? Goes wide. And we will go to overtime here in Los Angeles. Yes, he is. So, a chance here for Biffield. The defenseman Miller will take it and Biffield wins it. And that could be important. We’re over a minute out there. So, a lot of skating and a pass ahead by Miller. Now, Jarvis to the middle, leaves it. Ao shoots it. Rebound. They score. Jarvis gets it. A broken play. And he buries it. And the Hurricanes win 4-3. Yeah, it was one of those broken similar to the Kings goal by Kuzen and where the initial play didn’t make its way all the way through coming at you. Kings are okay. It’s okay. It’s okay even to this point and see Fiala came across. So if there’s any mixup, Fiala comes across, he runs into Jarvis, but he doesn’t pick up Jarvis and the puck just sneaks through here. It’s not an attempted pass. It’s an attempted shot, but it hits Clark and it just slows down enough where Jarvis can pick it up and make it happen. So, the Kings had a similar play, the Canes get a similar play, but this one happens in overtime. [Music]

Jordan Staal scored twice, K’Andre Miller dished out two assists, and Seth Jarvis scored the overtime winner to elevate the Carolina Hurricanes to a 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Kings.
