NHL: Philadelphia 4, Los Angeles 3

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- R.J. Umberger scored twice as the Flyers scored three third-period goals in a 3:10 span Thursday night for a 4-3 come-from-behind win over Los Angeles.

Simon Gagne scored the third goal in the furious comeback -- on his 10th goal of the year for Philadelphia, which won its second straight game. Antero Niittymaki made 23 saves for the Flyers.

Alexander Frolov had two goals and Brian Willsie scored once for the Kings, who lost for the third time in four games. Dan Cloutier made 26 saves.

Gagne started the rally with just under seven minutes to play, and Umberger tied the game at 3-3 40 seconds later. Umberger then put the winning goal into the net with a backhand shot off of Mike Richards' feed, after the puck deflected off a Kings' defender.

Both teams were 0-for-4 on the power play.
