The Los Angeles Kings overcame a near-collapse to defeat the Seattle Kraken 6-5, matching their franchise record for single-season wins. Samuel Helenius scored twice, leading the Kings to victory as they secured home-ice advantage in the playoffs against the Edmonton Oilers. Despite a strong start with a 4-2 lead, the Kings had to hold off a late surge from the Kraken. The game also saw Edmonton Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse suspended for one game after a hit on Kings forward Quinton Byfield. Nurse’s actions resulted in a fine and suspension but will not impact his availability for the playoffs. The Kings will face the Calgary Flames in their final regular-season game, while the Kraken finished the season as the fourth-worst team in the Western Conference. This win solidifies the Kings’ strong position heading into the postseason, where they will look to make a deep run with their talented roster.
