Rangers top Kings in shootout

NEW YORK — Adam Fox scored the deciding goal in the sixth round of a shootout and the New York Rangers beat the Los Angeles Kings 3-2 on Monday night for their ninth win in 12 games.

Chris Kreider got his NHL-leading 30th goal, Barclay Goodrow also scored and Artemi Panarin had two assists as New York won its fifth straight at home. Igor Shesterkin stopped 28 shots to pick up his 20th win of the season.

Blake Lizotte and Alex Iafallo scored in the second period for Los Angeles. Jonathan Quick stopped 34 shots as the Kings lost for the fourth time in five games.

Los Angeles’ Anze Kopitar and Panarin scored in the third round of the tiebreaker, and Kings rookie Quinton Byfield and New York’s Alexis Lafreniere converted in the fifth round. After Shesterkin denied Arthur Kaliyev in the sixth round, Fox roofed a slick backhand that stuck in the net to win it.

The Rangers began overtime on a power play that carried over from the third period. After Kempe came out of the penalty box 46 seconds into the extra period, the teams played 4-on-4 for the rest of an overtime that had no whistles. New York had five shots and Los Angeles two in the period.

Shesterkin made a stellar save on Trevor Moore’s breakaway 71⁄2 minutes into the third to keep Los Angeles’ lead at 2-1.

Goodrow tied it when he deflected Panarin’s point shot from the left side for his eighth with 5:45 left in regulation.
