LOS ANGELES (AP) — Adrian Kempe had a goal and an assist, and the Los Angeles Kings defeated the St. Louis Blues 5-1. Quinton Byfield, Blake Lizotte, Pierre-Luc Dubois and Kevin Fiala also scored for the Kings, who have won consecutive home games after winning just one of their first seven. Cam Talbot made 29 saves. Jake Neighbours scored late for St. Louis, but Jordan Binnington allowed five goals on 30 shots. The Blues were rocked for the second straight game, following a 5-1 pasting by the San Jose Sharks on Thursday.
