Kings 3, Islanders 2 (OT): Isles rally but Clarke scores winner

Victor Eklund opened the scoring for the Islanders with a power‑play strike that ended Darcy Kuemper’s shutout attempt, while Artemi Panarin added two goals for Los Angeles to give the Kings a 2‑0 lead after the first period. The Isles rallied in the second frame, outshooting their opponents and generating enough pressure for Matthew Schaefer to net his first goal of the season, tying the game and matching Bobby Orr’s mark for teenage defensemen.

The deadlock held through regulation, sending the contest to overtime where the Kings secured the win, leaving the Islanders with a single point despite their comeback effort. Semyon Varlamov was the goaltender for New York, making several saves but unable to prevent the late surge, while Kuemper remained in net for Los Angeles throughout the night.
