FOR THE THIRD time in the 2012 playoffs, the Los Angeles Kings failed to close out a series at home in game 4.
The Kings and Devils took a scoreless game into the third period, and Patrik Elias and Drew Doughty traded goals to make it 1-1.
With under 5 minutes remaining, Devils center Adam Henrique scored a beauty, beating Jonathan Quick — who had surrendered just two goals to the Devils in the first three games of the series.

Ilya Kovalchuk added an empty-netter in the final minute, meaning the two teams will meet in Newark on Saturday.
Of course, this could all be part of a grand Kings strategy, as they still haven’t lost on the road in the playoffs.
