Detroit had a late power play in the period but couldn’t convert.
Forsberg made a quality save against Moritz Seider five minutes into the third period.
The Kings were awarded a power play a minute later when Jacob Bernard-Docker was whistled for slashing, and Los Angeles didn’t waste the chance. Adrian Kempe set up Kuzmenko, who ripped a shot from the right circle that beat Gibson on the stick side at 6:46. Kevin Fiala collected the second assist.
Detroit soon had a power play when Drew Doughty was sent to the box for holding, but Los Angeles’ aggressive penalty kill worked again. DeBrincat got behind the defense, but Forsberg smothered his shot with 4:11 remaining.
After pulling Gibson for an extra skater, the Red Wings continued to pressure the net and broke through with 2:15 remaining. Seider set up DeBrincat for his team-high 28th goal, from the left circle.
Perry’s empty-netter with 1:13 to go sealed the Kings’ victory.

Report: Giants hire Brian Callahan as QBs coach
Tennessee Titans coach Brian Callahan exits the field after the game against the Indianapolis Colts at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tenn., Sunday, Sept. 21, 2025. Former Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan is being added to John Harbaugh’s coaching staff as the quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator for the New York Giants, ESPN reported Wednesday.
Callahan, 41, was fired by the Titans last October after a 1-5 start. Tennessee posted a 4-19 record under Callahan, who was hired by the Titans after five seasons as the Cincinnati Bengals’ offensive coordinator that included a three-point loss in Super Bowl LVI.
ESPN reported Callahan also interviewed with the Giants for the offensive coordinator position, which ultimately went to Matt Nagy. The latter was a former offensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs and head coach of the Chicago Bears.
Callahan, who will be coaching former first-round pick Jaxson Dart in his second season in the league, has extensive experience developing quarterbacks. He was the offensive coordinator for four seasons for Joe Burrow with the Bengals, was the quarterbacks coach in 2018 for Derek Carr with the Las Vegas Raiders and for two seasons for Matthew Stafford with the Detroit Lions.
In addition to Dart, Callahan will be working with veteran quarterback Jameis Winston.
Callahan and Nagy are part of an offensive staff that also includes former Rice University head coach Mike Bloomgren as offensive line coach and former offensive coordinators Greg Roman as senior offensive assistant and Tim Kelly as tight ends coach.
