If the Los Angeles Kings make anything of this season, they want to keep the last 10 seconds of their game Saturday night on a continuous loop. 
Jack Campbell, who made 33 saves in the game, stoned the Winnipeg Jets’ Mark Scheifele with a clutch save that preserved a 2-1 lead and the win for the Kings.
“I thought our guys did a great job that final minute,” Campbell said. “I just had to kind of make that one save for them.”
The Jets’ Jack Roslovic scored early in the third period to cut the Kings’ lead to 2-1.
The Jets went 10-3-1 in Movember.
“Yeah, our game is definitely night and day to where it was in October,” Jets forward Blake Wheeler said. “We’ve put ourselves in a good position here and looking towards the next month to keep growing our game, keep getting better.”
Joakim Ryan and Nikolai Prokhorkin struck for the Kings in the first period.
“He’s (Prokhorkin) a talented player,” Kings coach Todd McLellan said. “There’s a bit of a rotation that’s happening there, but he stayed ready, took advantage of his opportunity. You know, when some of our other centers were getting drilled early in the circle, he was actually winning a fair number of draws, so that was a real positive as well.”

Laurent Brossoit made 32 saves in the loss.
“They came out determined and it took us a little while to match it,” Winnipeg’s Blake Wheeler said. “Ultimately, the first period cost us, but there was a lot of that game that turned out to be real good and a real good battle by us giving us a chance to win.”
