Alexander Frolov scored twice and the Los Angeles Kings chased struggling goalie Peter Budaj with a three-goal onslaught in the second period before holding off a furious Avalanche comeback, L.A. winning 6-5 on Wednesday night.
Frolov’s power-play goal broke a 1-1 tie after John-Michael Liles went to the penalty box for hooking in the opening minute of the second quarter.
Nineteen seconds later, Jack Johnson’s one-timer made it 3-1.
Then Dustin Brown picked up a loose puck in front of Budaj, skated behind the net and passed it to Jarret Stoll, who put it high over Budaj, who was scrambling back into position.
The Kings scored five times on the Avalanche in the second period before being shut down in the third.
