The Kings got off to a solid start and took a 1-0 lead at the 2:39 mark. Ryan Smyth held the puck behind the net and fed a backhand shot toward the net as he skated to the corner. Smyth actually released the puck from below the goal line, but it caught Flyers goalie Michael Leighton by surprise and deflected into the net.
