End of 1st period. Though there was lots of grinding between both teams, the Kings were able to break through thanks to a Kopi goal tipped in the Blues net from a DD shot attempt. Also, that overturned goal in the Blues' PP really helped the Kings, as that eventually became a factor for the Kings to rally and score a goal of their own. But there's no time to get comfortable with the lead and hold back; the Kings still have 40 minutes of hockey left to play and protect their lead while they must get insurance goals to keep the Blues away.
