Doughty Piles Up Three Points as Kings Win in New York

Drew Doughty had the night's most-used skates on the Kings blue line, and he turned that ice time into a three-point game in a 6-3 win over the Rangers.

He played 21:37, the most of any Los Angeles skater and the most among the team's six defencemen, across 24 shifts. He scored at even strength late in the first period, at 17:32, and added an even-strength assist. His third point was an empty-net assist. He finished plus 3.

He took one shot on goal, blocked two shots, had one takeaway, and gave the puck away twice. He also took 2 penalty minutes.

This was a departure for him. His season line of one goal and three assists through 10 games includes this night, so this game accounts for his only goal and two of his three assists. His season ice time averages 21 minutes, so the workload was in line with his norm.

For the Kings, who sit at 3-5-2, it was a road win in which Doughty was in the middle of the scoring.
