Brad Stuart scored the go-ahead goal at 13:07 of the third, helping the Kings rally for a 5-3 win over Detroit on Thursday night. ``It's always great when you can come back and win a game in the third period,'' Stuart said. ``But it's much better when you can do it on the road against the best team in the league.''
