The Devils lost, 4-2, to the Kings at Staples Center on Saturday with goals by John Moore and Nick Lappin. Here's what we learned:
1) The Devils finished the game with a respectable 23 shots on goal, but had only nine in the first 40 minutes and that's simply not good enough. The Kings dominated puck possession for the majority of the game until the Devils put their foot down in the third and went full throttle in their attack. They were able to pull within one, but couldn't get the equalizer.
