Jonathan Quick flashes some vintage play, but Colorado scores on its first two power plays against an L.A. team missing all six defensemen from its opening-night lineup.
LOS ANGELES — Playing with a makeshift defense corps against the team with the NHL’s best record, the Kings avoided outright embarrassment but couldn’t take any points or even a goal from the Colorado Avalanche, which took a 3-0 victory on Tuesday night at Crypto.com Arena.
The Kings are not down to their last defenseman but rather past him, as Tobias Bjornfot missed Tuesday’s game after sustaining an injury in overtime on Sunday. He joined five other Kings defensemen in the pressbox, meaning the Kings dressed more blue-liners from their minor-league affiliate the Ontario Reign’s opening night roster than their own .
The Kings nearly averted a shutout when they appeared to score with 12:50 left off a gorgeous shot by defenseman Christian Wolanin. But the play was reviewed and the goal was nullified due to an offside zone entry.
