LAS VEGAS (AP) -Los Angeles rookie Jonathan Bernier stopped both shots he faced in a shootout, and Michael Cammalleri and Dustin Brown scored on their attempts to give the Kings a 3-2 exhibition victory over Colorado on Saturday night.

Colorado (3-1) led 1-0 after the first period on Tyler Arnason's goal at 12:52.
