Landeskog scores against compatriot Forsberg as Colorado beats Los Angeles Kings 4-2

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Anton Forsberg made 35 saves, but it wasn't enough in a home loss to Colorado. Gabriel Landeskog scored and had two assists as the visitors won 4–2.

Tre Kronor's Olympic team captain, Landeskog, scored the 2-0 goal past compatriot Forsberg halfway through the first period.

Barely six minutes earlier, the NHL's leading scorer, Nathan MacKinnon, had scored his 41st goal of the season.

Forsberg, who kept a clean sheet against Calgary on Saturday, had so far allowed two goals on five shots. After that, the 33-year-old struggled for a long time, and Los Angeles was able to tie it 2-2.

But with less than five minutes left to play, the decisive goal came when Devon Toews made it 3-2 for Colorado. The final goal came into an empty net after Forsberg was picked off while searching for an equalizer.
