Watch: Kopitar schools Sabres to snap 16-game goal drought

Anze Kopitar is on the board for the first time in nearly three weeks.

The Los Angeles Kings captain cruised in from the neutral zone, blew past Buffalo Sabres forward Ryan O'Reilly, and shoveled a dribbler past goaltender Robin Lehner to end a 16-game goal drought Tuesday night.

Kopitar hadn't scored since Oct. 25, when he tallied in a win over the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Tuesday's goal was his third of the season and his 246th in a Kings' uniform, tying Wayne Gretzky for sixth on the franchise's all-time list.
