Samuel Helenius News: Scores in win

Helenius scored a goal and added six hits in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

Helenius put the Kings ahead 2-0 in the second period. The 23-year-old forward continues to see limited minutes in a fourth-line role, but he appears to have a good chance to stay in the lineup down the stretch. He snapped a five-game point drought Thursday and is up to four goals, two assists, 23 shots on net, 34 PIM and 88 hits through 33 appearances this season.
