Kevin Fiala, Anze Kopitar and Trevor Moore each had a goal and an assist to help the Los Angeles Kings to a 5-2 win over the visiting Ottawa Senators on Saturday afternoon.

Alex Laferriere and Adrian Kempe also scored and David Rittich made 20 saves for the Kings, who have won three in a row following their 7-2 loss at the San Jose Sharks last Monday.

Tim Stutzle and Adam Gaudette scored and Anton Forsberg made 22 saves for the Senators, who were trying to win three in a row for the first time this season.

Laferriere, who had a goal and an assist in the 2-1 win at the Anaheim Ducks on Friday afternoon and two assists in a 4-1 win over the visiting Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday, gave the Kings a 1-0 lead at 1:57 of the first period.

Kings defenseman Jordan Spence pinched down on the wall and kept the puck in the Ottawa zone. It went below the goal line to Phillip Danault, who fed Laferriere cutting through the right circle. His shot grazed the skate of Ottawa defenseman Jacob Bernard-Docker on the way to the net.

The Senators tied it 1-1 with 46 seconds left in the opening period.

Brady Tkachuk carried the puck into the Los Angeles zone and dropped it for Drake Batherson, who spotted Stutzle entering the opposite side of the zone with speed. Batherson fed Stutzle, who scored his 10th goal of the season into the far side of the net from the bottom of the left circle.

Gaudette won a faceoff in the Los Angeles zone then tipped in a slap shot from Thomas Chabot to move the Senators ahead 2-1 at 6:11 of the second period.

It was the 12th goal of the season for Gaudette, tying his career high set over 59 games with the Vancouver Canucks in 2019-20.

The Kings tied it 2-2 at 7:26 of the second when Fiala came out from behind the net and stole the puck off the stick of Tyler Kleven before firing it past Forsberg.

Kopitar gave Los Angeles a 3-2 lead at 1:37 of the third period when he batted his own rebound out of the air and into the net.

Kempe scored on a one-timer off a feed from Fiala while on a power play to increase the lead to 4-2 at 16:14.

Moore followed up with an empty-net goal with 1:34 left to make it 5-2.
