Kings and Devils scoreless after 1st period
Jun 5th 2012, 01:01

Los Angeles, CA –  Jonathan Quick made seven saves and the Los Angeles Kings fought off a New Jersey 5-on-3 to finish the first period of Game 3 in a scoreless tie with the Devils.

LA leads the Stanley Cup Finals 2-0 after back-to-back 2-1 overtime wins in New Jersey.

Martin Brodeur made six saves in the first period for the Devils, whose two- man advantage came late in the period after Mike Richards was whistled for elbowing and Jeff Carter went off on a four-minute double minor after catching Adam Henrique in the face with a high stick.

The best chance came from Zach Parise, whose tip from the slot on a Patrik Elias pass was stopped by Quick.

Moments later, Devils defenseman Marek Zidlicky went off for tripping.

The Kings got a boost from the return of veteran forward Simon Gagne, who was on the ice for the first time since suffering a concussion Dec. 26 and played 1:44 in the first period.

It's the second career Finals appearance for Gagne, who registered a pair of goals for the Philadelphia Flyers in their six-game loss to Chicago in 2010.

Game 4 is Wednesday in LA.
