Trevor Moore<\/a> scored 1:56 into overtime to lift the Kings<\/a> to a 2-1 victory<\/a> over the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Adrian Kempe<\/a> also scored for the Kings, who moved into the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference<\/a> \u2014 one point ahead of San Jos\u00e9 and Nashville. Anton Forsberg made 23 saves, including one in overtime, for the Kings, who stopped a four-game losing streak at home.<\/p>\n

Robert Thomas scored the only goal for the Blues on a deflection with 3:53 left in the third period to send it to overtime. Jordan Binnington stopped 24 shots in the loss, including two in the extra period. St. Louis is four points behind the Kings for the second wild-card spot.<\/p>\n

Moore sped up the right side, outskated Jonatan Berggren, centered the puck and snapped a shot past Binnington for the victory. Anze Kopitar and Drew Doughty assisted on the goal.<\/p>\n

With the Kings leading 1-0, Thomas went to the front of the net and Philip Broberg\u2019s shot deflected off Thomas\u2019 skate and past Forsberg to tie it.<\/p>\n

After a scoreless first period, Jared Wright nearly put the Kings ahead midway through the second, but his goal was waved off for goaltender interference.<\/p>\n

The Kings got one that counted on Kempe\u2019s power-play goal on a wrister with 3:01 left in the second period to put them up 1-0.<\/p>\n

Up next for the Kings: vs. Nashville at Crypto.com Arena on Thursday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Trevor Moore scored 1:56 into overtime to lift the Kings to a 2-1 victory over the St. Louis…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":536043,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5120],"tags":[366,12966,71,5,1268,816,2409,4,44245,1164,343,1482,519,1856,534,84,5285,5284,1861,5464,5481],"class_list":{"0":"post-536042","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-st-louis-blues","8":"tag-adrian-kempe","9":"tag-anton-forsberg","10":"tag-blues","11":"tag-hockey","12":"tag-jordan-binnington","13":"tag-king","14":"tag-nashville","15":"tag-nhl","16":"tag-only-goal","17":"tag-overtime","18":"tag-point","19":"tag-robert-thomas","20":"tag-san-jose","21":"tag-shot","22":"tag-st-louis","23":"tag-st-louis-blues","24":"tag-stlouis","25":"tag-stlouisblues","26":"tag-trevor-moore","27":"tag-victory","28":"tag-wild-card-spot"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116333490617111669","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/536042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=536042"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/536042\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/536043"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=536042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=536042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=536042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
