Alex Laferriere and Kevin Fiala scored in the second period to erase a one-goal deficit, leading the visiting Los Angeles Kings to a 3-1 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday evening.

Joel Armia scored into an empty net to secure the win, and Anton Forsberg made 22 saves for the Kings, who were coming off a 5-4 loss at the Nashville Predators on Saturday night in a nine-round shootout.

The Kings have earned points in five straight games (3-0-2), but they had not won in regulation this season until Sunday.

Connor Bedard scored and Arvid Soderblom made 19 saves for the Blackhawks, who had won two in a row and four of five.

Chicago took a 1-0 lead at 7:04 of the first period after Ilya Mikheyev stole the puck from Kings forward Alex Turcotte along the wall in the neutral zone, leading to an odd-man rush the other way.

Bedard deflected Mikheyev's shot as he drove toward the net, and the puck hit the post before bouncing off Forsberg's right skate and crossing the goal line.

The Kings tied it 1-1 at 3:30 of the second period.

Los Angeles defenseman Brian Dumoulin knocked the puck away from Sam Rinzel in the Kings' zone, creating a 2-on-1 break with Corey Perry and Laferriere.

Perry slid the puck to Laferriere, who scored with a wrist shot from the left circle to tie the game.

Los Angeles moved ahead 2-1 at 4:54 when Fiala sprung loose on a breakaway. Under pressure from a pair of back checkers, Fiala opted to take the puck behind the net and scored with a wraparound.

The Blackhawks trailed heading to the third period for the first time this season and the Kings sealed it with an empty-net goal by Armia with 1:08 left.

Kings forward Warren Foegele left five minutes into the game with an upper-body injury after taking a hit in the corner from Nick Foligno and did not return.

Foegele was third on Los Angeles last season with 24 goals.
