LOS ANGELES -- One spectacular shot by Jeff Carter kept the Los Angeles Kings rolling on an increasingly impressive winning streak.Carter scored his 10th goal of the season 1:06 into overtime, and the Kings beat the Chicago Blackhawks 2-1 on Saturday night for their season-best fifth consecutive victory.Alec Martinez scored and Peter Budaj stopped 18 shots for the Kings, who persevered through a back-and-forth game for their third straight win over Chicago at Staples Center.These Kings dont often light up scoreboards, and they arent the same defensive powerhouse without injured goalie Jonathan Quick. Theyre still thriving in coach Darryl Sutters disciplined system -- even against Chicago, the Western Conference leaders.Weve got a good chemistry with the team now, said Budaj, who is 12-6-1 after emerging as Quicks replacement. We have very good personnel here, and a great group of guys. We stick together.Just seven seconds after Los Angeles failed to score on a power play stretching into overtime, Carter fired an exceptional wrist shot past Scott Darling for his fifth goal in five games. Carter also had an early assist, giving him a team-leading 19 points in 22 games.The veteran power forward has been carrying the Kings offense with the absence of Marian Gaborik and the struggles of captain Anze Kopitar, who hasnt scored a goal in 11 games since Oct. 25.Carter is back on the reconstituted That 70s Line with Tyler Toffoli and Tanner Pearson, and his teammates are enjoying the view.He definitely has his mojo going right now, Pearson said. Tyler and I are along for the ride, but he is definitely playing his game. This is Jeff Carter, and we know how he plays. He is rolling right now.Gaborik also made his season debut for the Kings, playing in his first regular-season game since Feb. 12. The $34 million Slovak wing broke his foot during the World Cup of Hockey.Patrick Kane scored and Darling stopped 27 shots in his first loss for the Blackhawks, who finished their seven-game circus road trip at 3-3-1.Captain Jonathan Toews missed his second straight game with an upper-body injury, but Chicago nearly swept its two-game stop in Southern California following a win over Anaheim on Friday.I think the last couple of games, weve played better than we have for most of the year, as far as being a team, defenseman Duncan Keith said.Chicago didnt get a shot on goal for the first 11:40, but Kane scored his eighth goal of the season with a redirection on the Blackhawks first shot. Kane scored in his second straight game in Southern California after last seasons NHL MVP failed to score a goal on the first five games of the circus trip.Los Angeles evened it early in the second period when Martinez fired a shot over Darlings shoulder for his fifth goal and 14th point, extending his five-game scoring streak. The defenseman and 2014 Stanley Cup Final hero became the Kings second-leading scorer with that goal.An apparent goal by Toffoli was waved off on video review just 72 seconds into the first period. Officials ruled Blackhawks defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson was shoved into Darling for goaltender interference.Its a long trip and a lot of good teams, LA included, Darling said. I thought we really had quite a good effort ... especially without the best player in the world, Jonathan Toews. The guys stepped up and really filled the gap there.Game notesThe Kings are 9-2-0 with six straight victories at home. ... Gaborik missed the first 21 games this season, and he missed the final 28 games of last season with a knee injury. He returned for four playoff games last spring. ... F Andrew Desjardins and D Michal Kempny returned to Chicagos lineup after being scratches Friday at Anaheim. They replaced F Jordin Tootoo and D Michal Rozsival. ... Kyle Clifford was scratched for the second time all season to make room for Gaborik. D Tom Gilbert also replaced D Matt Greene in Los Angeles lineup.UP NEXTBlackhawks: Finally return home to face Florida on Tuesday.Kings: Host rival San Jose on Wednesday.Bogdan Bogdanovic Kings Jersey .
