Zach Parise ended a five-game goal drought on a rare mistake by goalie Jonathan Quick, and Martin Brodeur stopped 25 shots to help the Devils end the Kings' 10-game postseason winning streak on the road and 12-game run over the past two years, both NHL records.

Justin Williams scored for the Kings, whose once seemingly insurmountable 3-0 series lead has been cut to 3-2. Game 6 on Monday night in Los Angeles.

 

 

In NHL history, only the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs came back from an 0-3 hole to win a best-of-seven finals.
