LOS ANGELES -- Tyler Toffoli and Tanner Pearson are among the few Los Angeles Kings who dont have a Stanley Cup ring from two years ago. Custom Cincinnati Bengals Jerseys . Jeff Carter is grateful the youngsters are carrying him along on their own Cup chase after their line came up with another monster game against the Chicago Blackhawks. Carter had a goal and two assists, Toffoli scored the tiebreaking goal late in the second period, and the Kings beat Chicago 4-3 on Saturday night to take a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference finals. Drew Doughty had a third-period goal and an assist, and Jonathan Quick made 24 saves as the Kings returned to Staples Center with an impressive two-way effort against the defending Stanley Cup champions. "Im having so much fun with these guys," said Toffoli, who has scored a goal in every game of the conference finals. "Getting to play with a guy like Carter is a great opportunity, and (Pearson) and me are trying to live up to him." Game 4 is Monday night at Staples Center. Three days after Carter had four points in the third period of Game 2, Los Angeles got another dominant effort from the line centred by the veteran goal-scorer. In a 6:11 span of the second period of Game 3, Carter scored the tying goal off Pearsons pass before setting up the go-ahead score by Toffoli, who has a goal in every game of the conference finals. "They have a lot of chemistry from playing together" in the minors, Carter said. "They use their speed and their skill to create opportunities, and they kind of drag me along with them, so its fun." Toffoli and Pearson still hadnt cracked Los Angeles lineup in 2012 when the eighth-seeded Kings won the title. Toffoli became a regular for last seasons run to the conference finals, while Pearson made his NHL debut in a playoff game last spring. Theyve both become key components of the Kings four-line offensive attack. Slava Voynov also scored an early power-play goal as the Kings moved halfway to their second Stanley Cup final in three years. Captain Jonathan Toews scored twice in the first period for the Blackhawks, but they didnt score again until Patrick Sharps goal with 5 seconds left. Corey Crawford stopped 28 shots for the Blackhawks, who have lost the first road game in 10 consecutive playoff series since 2010. "Once they got the lead, they seemed to get the momentum, and we couldnt quite find our way back into the game," Toews said. "Its up to us to play better with those leads." Three days after the Kings evened the series by scoring six consecutive goals in the final 22 minutes of Game 2, Los Angeles didnt relax and rely on its NHL-best defence. Neither team played conservatively despite the stakes, instead trading tantalizing scoring chances for the first two periods. The Kings kept pushing for goals even while leading in the third, generating 18 shots and keeping the talented Blackhawks stuck in their own end for long stretches. "We all want to win in here, and Toews is obviously our captain and leader," Chicago defenceman Duncan Keith said. "He definitely led the way tonight, but we need everybody if we are going to beat this team and try to win one here. Toews came out and led the way. Its up to the rest of us to follow that." The Blackhawks beat Los Angeles in five games in the conference finals last season, but the rematch hasnt been nearly as smooth for Chicago. Patrick Kane and Bryan Bickell havent scored a goal in the conference finals, while Sharps last-gasp goal was his first of the series. The Blackhawks had their usual hundreds of red-clad fans in an otherwise black-and-white Staples Center crowd, and Toews put Chicago ahead just 5:26 into Game 3 with a spectacular short-handed goal, stealing the puck from Justin Williams and beating Quick between the legs. After Voynov tied it, Toews connected again later in the period on a rebound. The Kings evened it in the second period when Pearson corralled a puck that hit a referee behind the net and fed it to Carter in front for his eighth goal. Carter then chipped the puck ahead to Toffoli shortly after a Chicago power play ended. Toffoli broke in on Crawford, who lifted his left pad for only an instant -- right when Toffoli pushed the puck under him. The Kings kept up the pressure in the third period, and Doughty scored just his second goal of the post-season shortly after a power play expired in the third period.

Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Hi Kerry, I noticed when the Vancouver Canucks were playing San Jose last week, the Sharks pulled their goalie when down by two to go six on five. San Jose proceeded to ice the puck and were allowed to replace the sixth player with their goalie for the defensive zone faceoff. With the rule of not being able to make a line change after an icing, shouldnt the same rule apply to goalies? Thanks, Kyle Shanks Kyle, Rule 81.4 (Line Change on Icing) and Rule 82.1 (Line Changes) both reference specific situations which allow a team guilty of icing the puck to make a player substitution. These rules state, However, a team shall be permitted to make a player substitution for an extra attacker, to replace a goalkeeper who had been substituted for an extra attacker, to replace an injured player, or when a penalty has been assessed which affects the on-ice strength of either team. The determination of players on the ice will be made when the puck leaves the offending players stick. When the new icing rule was crafted, it was only logical (and in the best interest of the game) that these exemptions were added. Forcing a team to defend an end zone face-off without the benefit of their goaltender in the net would incur excessive punishment for an icing violation. The commonsense application to allow the goalie to return to his net following icing is consistent with the penalty shot rule (24. Jonah Williams Youth Jersey. 2) which states, if at the time a penalty shot has been awarded, the goalkeeper of the penalized team has been removed from the ice to substitute another player, the goalkeeper shall be permitted to return to the ice before the penalty shot is taken. Due to the unique duties that a goalkeeper performs, in addition to the extended privileges provided him, the goalie is allowed to return to his net after being substituted for an extra attacker. It is likewise unrealistic and potentially dangerous to force a player that is injured to remain on the ice following an icing infraction. As clearly defined in the rule, a team is allowed to substitute for an injured player. One time, I allowed a player that broke his skate during play to be substituted for following an icing infraction committed by his team. While this situation isnt specifically listed in the rule, since the players failed equipment rendered him unfit for play, it was just plain common sense to allow a substitution. It is also important to note Kyle, that goalkeepers substitution (return to the net) must be conducted within the same time frame as a regular line change. No extra time will be allotted to the goalkeeper coming off the bench, except in the case where an injury to a goalkeeper occurs. The referees should enforce the goalkeepers prompt return to the net to maintain the spirit and integrity of the Rule 81—Icing. ' ' '
