LOS ANGELES — Trevor Moore scored short-handed, Alex Laferriere got his ninth goal of the season, and the Los Angeles Kings beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-2. The Kings overcame a sluggish first period, falling behind on Dmitri Voronkov's goal, before they took charge with Vladislav Gavrikov's shot through several screens and Warren Foegele's finish off the rush 1:56 apart in the second. Ivan Provorov had a power-play goal for the Blue Jackets, who have lost four straight, with three of those defeats coming in regulation. It was their first loss in five games when leading after the first period this season. Brandt Clarke added an empty-netter in the final minute for Los Angeles, and David Rittich had 24 saves.
