Detroit's Patrick Kane ties Modano for American-born NHL points mark in 3-1
loss to Kings
DETROIT (AP) --- Anton Forsberg made 26 saves and the Los Angeles Kings beat
the Red Wings 3-1 on Tuesday night as Detroit winger Patrick Kane moved into a
tie with Dallas' Mike Modano as the highest-scoring American-born players in
NHL history.
Kane matched Modano by recording his 1,374th point on an assist on a goal by
Alex DeBrincat late in the third period. He accomplished the feat just a couple
of months after turning 37, while Modano was 40 when he scored a goal to
register point No. 1,374. For his career, Kane has 500 goals and 874 assists in
1,341 NHL regular-season games. Modano retired in 2011 with 561 goals and 813
assists in 1,499 games.
Samuel Helenius, Andrei Kuzmenko and Corey Perry scored for the Kings, who won
their third straight game.
Detroit's John Gibson made 19 saves and had his eight-game win streak halted,
surrendering a goal midway through the second period and a power-play score
early in the third.
The Kings have earned points in their last six games (3-0-3). The Red Wings
lost for just the second time in six games and third time in their last 11.
Helenius got Los Angeles on the board at the 10-minute mark of the second
period, scoring his second of the season by converting a feed from Jeff Malott
from behind the net.
Kuzmenko extended the lead to 2-0 for the Kings at 6:46 of the third period,
scoring on the power play on assists from Adrian Kempe and Kevin Fiala. The
goal was the 24th of the season with a man advantage for the Kings, who rank
last in the NHL on the power play.
DeBrincat scored and pulled Detroit within 2-1 at 17:45 of the third period
after the Red Wings pulled Gibson for the extra skater. Kane and Moritz Seider
assisted.
The Kings iced the game when Perry scored into an empty net at 18:47.
