LOS ANGELES -- Sidney Crosby had a goal and an assist to pass the 50-point mark for the 18th time in his NHL career, and the Pittsburgh Penguins defeated the Los Angeles Kings 5-1 at Crypto.com Arena on Monday.

The Pittsburgh Penguins (20-21-8) were firmly in control until a pair of late second-period penalties. The LA Kings (30-11-5) converted on a two-man advantage to close within 3-1 and seize palpable momentum.

Playing their first home game since the devastating wildfires in the region, the Kings never get on track in a 5-1 defeat, their first loss at Crypto.com Arena since Nov. 20.

Kevin Hayes, Sidney Crosby and Anthony Beauvillier each had a goal and an assist to help the Pittsburgh Penguins end the Los Angeles Kings' nine-game home winning streak with a 5-1 victory on Monday night.

It was just one of those nights for the Los Angeles Kings and one that we hadn’t seen in a while. Nothing went right in all aspects of the game. It was an outlier performance and one they aren’t used to delivering.
