CHICAGO -- Anze Kopitar scored, then Jarrett Stoll got a short-handed goal. There was another score in the final second of the second period. Once the Los Angeles Kings got going, the Chicago Blackhawks just couldnt stop them. Brown converted his own rebound with 1:27 remaining and the Kings scored all their goals in the final two periods of a 5-4 victory over the Blackhawks on Monday night. "It was just a team effort," Kopitar said. "Going into the game we knew we had to get 20 guys on board with a team effort was the intention we had. We just stuck with it." It was Los Angeles highest-scoring game since a 5-2 victory over San Jose on March 16 and came on the heels of consecutive shutout losses to Dallas and Vancouver. The scoreless stretch reached 150 minutes, 35 seconds before Kopitar picked up his 10th goal of the season at 4:21 in the second. "We got good games out of our third and fourth lines, and Brownie scored a big goal at the end," Kings coach Darryl Sutter said. "Theyre probably not happy with the way they played, and if wed have lost, we wouldnt have been happy with the way we played." Browns first attempt went off the back of Blackhawks defenceman Johnny Oduya, but it bounced right back to the captain, who sent it past Corey Crawford for his 12th of the season. Kopitar set up the score by winning a faceoff in Chicagos end. "We didnt respond to the challenge that was there tonight and I was disappointed with how we played and what we gave them," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said. Michael Frolik had two goals and an assist for Chicago, which has lost two in a row. Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews also scored, and Duncan Keith finished with three assists. The Blackhawks were without right wing Marian Hossa for the second straight game due to an upper-body injury. Hossa isnt expected to play Tuesday night against Calgary, but could return this weekend. Toews gave Chicago the lead when he beat Jonathan Quick with a backhander early in the third period, but Tyler Toffoli responded with a tying snap shot with 11:54 remaining. Dwight King also scored for Los Angeles, which will be honoured at the White House on Tuesday for winning the Stanley Cup last season. "We kept battling," Toffoli said. "Pucks started going in. Wed lost two at home, so we wanted to get the road trip going well. Now its important to carry it into the next game." Kopitar picked up a loose puck, skated in and sent a beautiful shot over a sliding Oduya and into the upper right corner of the goal to tie it at 1 in the second. It was the first goal for Los Angeles since Stoll scored a power-play goal in the third period of a 3-2 victory over Phoenix last Tuesday. After Stoll and Frolik exchanged scores in the middle of the period, Kane gave the Blackhawks the lead when he waited until the perfect moment to slide the puck past a prone Quick on the left side of the net for his team-best 17th of the season. Los Angeles needed just 40 seconds to respond, getting the tying goal at 19:59 of the period. Drew Doughty made a strong push that was denied by Crawford, but the rebound went off Kings skate and in for his fourth on the year. And just like that, the Kings had equaled their output from the previous three games in just one period. "For them to tie it up I think gave them the momentum," Kane said. "But we came back and took the lead and obviously didnt play very well with the lead. Tough loss for sure." The Blackhawks used a quick burst of precision passing to jump in front 5:55 into the game. Toews won a faceoff in the Kings end back to Keith, who quickly sent it forward to Brandon Saad. The rookie forward then passed it to the middle to Frolik, who whipped it past Quick for his first goal since Chicagos 5-2 victory at Los Angeles in the season opener on Jan. 19. Chicago had a chance to add to the lead, but was unable to score during a four-minute power play in the first. Los Angeles hasnt allowed a power-play goal since the second period of a 4-3 loss to San Jose on March 14, killing off the past 17 chances it has faced. "We worked hard," Brown said. "We didnt get discouraged. We battled against different things each period. The four-minute kill was huge in the first. It gave us a chance to battle back." NOTES: Blackhawks LW Brandon Bollig and Kings C Jordan Nolan dropped their gloves and ditched their helmets for a fight in the second period. Bollig patted Nolan on the back of the head after it was broken up by the officials, then skated over to the penalty box and pounded the glass as the door closed. ... The Kings have never been shut out in three consecutive games. ... LW Daniel Carcillo and D Sheldon Brookbank also were scratched for the Blackhawks. ... RWs Brad Richardson and Dustin Penner, along with D Davis Drewiske, were the scratches for Los Angeles. .C. -- So much for Tajh Boyds late-season slump.

He didnt have to, with the Knicks offering him plenty of support for a change. ... . Eric Hosmer added an RBI single for the Royals, who were able to earn a split in the series and won for only the second time in their last eight games overall. Luke Hochevar (4-6) worked seven effective innings, allowing two runs on six hits to pick up his first win since defeating Minnesota on May 1.

Humphries, from Calgary, and Valouis, from Wakaw, Sask., finished with a two-run time of one minute 56.53 seconds. "We were close to pushing a start record for this track so it was a really good day for us," said Humphries, following her fourth national title. . Ferrer, ranked No. 4, is a strong favourite to win his second tournament of the young season. He won in Auckland, New Zealand, last month. "I was ready to get going, and get going with a victory," Ferrer said.ST. MORITZ, Switzerland - Lindsey Vonn won a World Cup super-combined event Friday to extend her lead in the overall standings over second-place Tina Maze. The American defended her lead from the morning downhill with a solid slalom leg to win in a combined two-run time of two minutes 28.35 seconds. Maze was 0.41 seconds back and third-place Nicole Hosp of Austria trailed Vonn by 0.58. "It was a really satisfying win," Vonn said. "I was happy with my downhill run but I knew it was going to be tough to hang on." Vonn earned 100 World Cup points for the victory and now leads Maze by 302. "It was really important today," Vonn said. "If I were to go out (in slalom), I knew that Tina would be within striking distance so I had to stay on the podium. I tried to ski smart." Maze said she lost the race by trailing 1.41 behind Vonn in downhill. "I tried to be fast and be close to Lindsey," the Slovenian said. "I lost too much time. Super-combined is like that, and if you dont do well in one (discipline), you lose." Vonns 48th career World Cup win on a perfect sunny day for racing also got her bid for a third straight season-long super-combined title off to a successful start. She now has seven victories this season as she seeks to recapture the overall crown. Vonn held her nerve when Maze and Hosp put down the two fastest slalom runs, after they had placed sixth and seventh, respectively, in the downhill. "It definitely wasnt pretty skiing, but I made it," Vonn said. "Theree arent many parts of slalom Im good at, but on the flats is one of them.dddddddddddd" Elisabeth Goergl of Austria had been second in downhill, 0.61 behind Vonn, but skied out in the slalom. It proved another disappointing day for defending overall champion Maria Hoefl-Riesch, the Olympic champion in super-combined. The German was third in the morning but made a big mistake midway down the slalom gates and had to hike back up the snow to resume her run. Hoefl-Riesch was 21st, more than five seconds down, and has yet to win a race this season after denying Vonn a fourth straight overall title last year. Hosp won the overall crown in 2006-07 before Vonns winning streak began, but has sustained a series of injuries since. The 28-year-old Austrian got her first podium finish this season, and just her second since March 2009. American teammates Leanne Smith and Julia Mancuso dropped in the standings after being fourth- and fifth-fastest in downhill. Mancuso, the Olympic silver medallist in super-combined, finished 13th, 3.82 behind Vonn. Smith placed 18th, 4.74 back. Both were upbeat about their prospects in Saturdays marquee downhill race. "I tried to push it today to see where I can be perfect for (Saturday)," said Mancuso, who is seventh in the overall standings. "Im happy with where I am." The St. Moritz races conclude Sunday with the second of the seasons three scheduled super-combined events. Its a makeup for a cancelled race last month at Val dIsere, France, and comprises super-G and slalom legs. [url=http://www.cheapjerseyschina.cc/]cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
