LOS ANGELES -Some nights you go off-script, way off-script. That happened here in the vicinity of Hollywood proper Tuesday. What was anticipated to be a grinding, tight, defensive-leaning game turned into a "High Noon" old-school western shootout during the first period. The undoing of any possible goalie duel started early, 16 seconds into the game.
The wild back-and-forth goal scoring was so furious, fans needed the scoreboard here in Crypto.com Arena or score graphic watching on ROOT SPORTS. You basically could lose track and/or be jolted back to rollicking reality musing about how the last goal was scored when the next goal light went on.
By mid-third period, the game was 8-7 when Los Angeles closed the first two-goal of the night back to a tenuous one-goal margin yet again. Just more than a minute later, Los Angeles tied the game again and the final six-plus was nerve-wracking for all involved. The game going to overtime seemed only fair that each team's goal scorers come away with a point for their squads.
