LOS ANGELES—David Rittich stopped 26 shots for his sixth career shutout, Adrian Kempe reached the 20-goal mark for the third straight season and the Los Angeles Kings beat New York 3–0 on Monday night to snap the Islanders’ six-game winning streak.
It was the Kings’ fifth shutout this season and the second for Rittich, who was making his first start since Feb. 26. The Czech-born goalie made 26 saves in a 4–0 victory over Edmonton on Feb. 10, which was Jim Hiller’s first game as interim coach.
