EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- With two days off in an all-California series, the Los Angeles Kings seized the opportunity to fly home for two days of practice before Game 4. After their performance in Game 3, it is clear the defending Stanley Cup champions still need plenty of work. The Kings went through a short workout at their training complex Sunday after sleeping in their own beds following a 2-1 overtime loss to the San Jose Sharks on Saturday night. Such easy travel usually isnt possible in the spread-out Western Conference, but Game 4 isnt until Tuesday night at the Shark Tank. "We were home at pretty much the same time as we would coming from Staples on a regular night," centre Anze Kopitar said. "Its a 50-minute flight, so its pretty quick. I think its good for us." Los Angeles 2-1 loss in Game 3 ended on a power-play goal after two penalty calls that angered and confused the Kings for several reasons. Yet captain Dustin Brown acknowledged the Kings have plenty of concerns beyond the officiating. Los Angeles leads the series 2-1, but only after getting a 35-save shutout from Jonathan Quick in Game 1 and stealing Game 2 with two late power-play goals. "Weve got to score more than one goal," Brown said. "I mean, Quickie is a great goalie, but at the end of the day, we need to score more than one goal for him. We havent done that. I think weve only scored one goal three times out of four away games." Indeed, the Kings have scored six goals in their four road playoff games this spring, half of them in a 3-2 overtime win at St. Louis. The other three road playoff games all have been 2-1 losses -- and before that, Los Angeles dropped six straight road games to close the regular season, scoring nine goals in that stretch. Robyn Regehr was whistled for hooking on a seemingly garden-variety stick play with 41.7 seconds left in regulation in Game 3, and Trevor Lewis followed him into the box with 4.5 seconds left on a goaltender interference call that had the Kings steaming. They claimed Lewis was pushed into Antti Niemi, and questioned why such a dramatic call would be made so late in a game. The Kings killed off the 5-on-3 disadvantage, but gave up Logan Coutures power-play game-winner. Quick, who shut out the Sharks from the opening minutes until the final buzzer, got a game misconduct for berating the officials who made the decisive call. "Not happy, but we cant do anything about it," Kopitar said. "Again, its the position that we put ourselves into that is mind-boggling. Its not the way we want to play and be in that situation. We came close to killing it off, but weve said it all along, you cant give them too many opportunities, because they will score, and they did." The Kings have demonstrated they know how to regroup after a playoff loss. After dropping the first two games of the post-season in St. Louis, they responded with six straight victories. The Sharks also present a challenge similar to the Blues in their desire to attack Quick with a high volume of shots. St. Louis outshot Los Angeles in four of the six games, and the Kings have been soundly outshot by San Jose in the current series -- but with Quick in top form, the numbers havent beaten Los Angeles. San Jose also has revived its dominant power play, which produced both of its goals in Game 3 after the Kings shut out the Sharks in the first two games at Staples Center. "Especially when the Conn Smythe winner (is) on the defending champion team, Im going to assume if I was coaching against them, that Im going to say, Shoot lots, and get as much traffic as you can," Sutter said. "So I think San Jose has that mindset, as St. Louis did last series. Youre trying to get your team to shoot more, and youre trying to get players to go to the net more."

Thats Jordan Spieths message to Dallas Cowboys fans.But be sure to keep any thoughts of gloating away from social media, too; until they reach the playoffs, at least.Ive been quieter on social media this year about it, Im kind of just like just let them do their thing, Spieth said at Royal Sydney Golf Club, where he is preparing to play in the Australian Open.But come Super Bowl time, if they go through the process and make it there, then we can go nuts ... most people arent Cowboys fans and Ive realized Ill just keep to myself [until then].Currently riding an eight-game winning streak and three games clear at the top of the NFC East, the Cowboys are the hottest team in the NFL.And its all been without star quarterback Tony Romo, with?Dak Prescott thriving in the hot seat of one of the NFLs most scrutinized franchises.Its incredible what theyre doing, Spieth said of the Cowboys.I think they actually just recently named that Dak was going to stay the starter, I think Jerry Jones named that, he continued when asked whether Prescott should retain the starting spot.Its awesome to have two fantastic quarterbacks on the team when we were kind of really struggling last year with Tony out. [Its] fun to watch. I hope I actually get to go back and get to a couple of games. It looks like theyre going to make it into February - so to the Super Bowl.Spieth said Dallas was a ddifferent place when the Cowboys were winning.ddddddddddddI mean when the Cowboys are playing well, the city of Dallas is just rocking, its just a different vibe.Texas is just a huge football state, so its a lot of fun at home now and hopefully [Ill] get to a couple of games.Before he heads back to the U.S. to take in some Cowboys action, Spieths focus is firmly on this weeks Australian Open -- a tournament he won two years ago before his runner-up finish in 2015.This year hasnt reached the lofty heights of his amazing five-win 2015 season, but Spieth said he was maybe a little disappointed really only with the second half of the PGA Tour.I got myself into position early on this year, I mean Hawaii was a better performance than any of the ones in 15, he said.And then the Masters, I got myself into position there, a couple of swings away from another major and then, where else, Colonial, winning the way we did there was a lot of fun, too.So it was just the second half of the year where I would say I maybe tried just a bit too hard, didnt let it come to me, was getting a little frustrated with the lack of first-place finishes; I guess, even though if you win five times a year from the amount of time I expect to be on tour, Ill have more than Tiger [Woods]. So its unrealistic. ' ' '
