Stone Scores With 7 Seconds Left As Senators Beat Kings, 2-1

OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — Mark Stone scored with 7 seconds left in regulation to give the Ottawa Senators a 2-1 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Friday night.

Stone tracked down a loose puck in the crease and put the Senators ahead less than four minutes after Zack Smith tied it. Craig Anderson finished with 32 saves for Ottawa.

Dwight King scored early in the second period for the Kings. Jeff Zatkoff had a shutout going through the first two periods, stopping all 18 shots the Senators sent his way, but he was replaced to start the third by Peter Budaj, who had a shutout streak of 140:57 snapped Thursday night in Montreal.

After Budaj made 12 straight saves, Smith was able to bat his own rebound out of the air and in with 3:54 remaining to tie it. Budaj finished with 13 stops.

The Kings had the lone power play of the first period and outshot the Senators 14-8 but were unable to get anything past Anderson.

Los Angeles came closest to a goal when Nick Shore used a nifty toe-drag to get around Senators forward Ryan Dzingel and beat Anderson with a shot but it hit the post to keep the game scoreless.

Jeff Carter initially got credit for the Kings' goal 56 seconds, but replays showed his backhander through traffic appeared to hit King's left leg before going in.

Anze Kopitar was stopped point-blank by Anderson on the power play and then missed the net on a short-handed breakaway later in the second.

The Senators had a 22-second 5-on-3 advantage in the period but didn't manage a shot.
