Blazers beat by Royals, losing streak up to 5

“To me, there’s just not enough guys that come with a workman-like attitude for a full 60,” Lajoie said after the game. “In my estimation, we let another game slip. Right now, we’re falling deeper and deeper into a hole. I’m just waiting for someone to step up. That’s what I’m waiting for.”

Conor Zary tallied the lone goal for the Blazers 1:55 into the 2nd Period, with Nolan Kneen and Martin Lang picking up helpers. Kaid Oliver got the Royals on the board four minutes after that with a power-play marker, and the diminutive Dante Hannoun scored the game-winner 9:21 into the 3rd.
