EDGE Analysis

Jeff Zatkoff sparkled in relief (25 saves on 26 shots) and ended up stealing a win, which might inspire the Kings to give Budaj a day off when they get back in action Sunday. Following a five-game winning streak, the veteran netminder has proceeded to allow five goals on 29 shots in a span of four periods.
