PITTSBURGH — Kevin Fiala broke a tie with 8:08 left with his 500th NHL point to help the Los Angeles Kings beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-2 on Sunday to open a six-game trip.

Fiala got around defenseman Erik Karlsson and shot over goalie Sergei Murashov. Fiala also had an assist. The 29-year-old Swiss winger has 218 goals and 282 assists in 667 regular-season games with Nashville, Minnesota and Los Angeles.

Corey Perry tied it at 2 for the Kings at 4:49 of the third. He also had an assist.

Anze Kopitar also scored for Los Angeles, and Darcy Kuemper stopped 31 shots. The Kings improved to 7-5-4. They had lost three of four.

Tommy Novak and Anthony Mantha scored for Pittsburgh, coming off a 2-1 shootout loss at New Jersey on Saturday. The Penguins have lost four of five to fall to 9-5-3. They now head to Sweden for a pair of games against Nashville.

Murashov made 24 saves in his NHL debut.

Saturday’s game

NEWARK, N.J. — Paul Cotter scored the shootout winner, Jake Allen stopped 33 of the 34 shots he faced in regulation and overtime and the New Jersey Devils beat the Penguins 2-1 on Saturday to take sole possession of first place in the NHL’s Metropolitan Division.

Jesper Bratt also scored in the shootout, and Allen turned aside Bryan Rust and Sidney Crosby to win a game for New Jersey that the Penguins dominated for long stretches. Arturs Silovs’ struggles in the shootout continued, as he has allowed seven shooters to score on eight attempts this season.

Allen was the best player on the ice for the Devils, who entered the game tied with Pittsburgh in the standings after beating Montreal in overtime on Thursday night. The only goal he allowed was a pinball deflection shot by former New Jersey defenseman Ryan Graves that deflected in off Ondrej Palat.

Arseny Gritsyuk also scored, taking advantage of a brutal turnover by Kris Letang and beating Silovs with 57.5 seconds left in the first period for his third goal of his rookie season. Devils captain Nico Hischier missed a few shifts in the third after taking a puck to the face but returned before the end of regulation.

Silovs made a highlight-reel save in the second, flashing his glove to rob Jack Hughes. He finished with 23 saves in his ninth start of the season, before faltering again in the shootout.

Mantha fought Brenden Dillon midway through the first after Dillon laid out Novak with an open-ice hit.
