Canes beaten by Kings, 4-2.

The Canes didn't make the most of a good early start and fell, 4-2, to the Kings.  The loss snapped their 7-game points streak.  Jesperi Kotkaniemi got the Hurricanes on the board first with a deflection of Sean Walker's point drive with a little less than 5 minutes remaining in the first period.  But, Dimitry Orlov's turnover went right to L-A's Phillip Daneault, who's shot beat Frederik Andersen to tie the game.  Orlov was on the ice for 3 of the 4 Kings goals, and didn't play the last 8:20, after Kevin Fiala's second goal of the game made it 4-2.  Eric Robinson's 12th goal of the season drew the Canes within a goal early in the 3rd, but they would get no closer.
