Four seconds after a Kings power play ended, the Senators went on the power play and took advantage. The Senators won an offensive-zone faceoff and the puck reached Kovalev in the right circle. He broke his stick on the shot, which beat Quick at the 10-minute mark with something of a knuckleball shot to give the Senators a 1-0 lead. The goal gave Kovalev his 1,000th career NHL point.
