Los Angeles (11-6-6) has been a strong road team this season. They enter this game with a solid 9-2-3 record away from home. LA's last game was a 2–1 win over the Ottawa Senators, with goaltender Darcy Kuemper stopping 27 shots to improve his record to 8-4-4 for the season.
Anaheim (14-8-1) arrives having dropped a 5–4 decision to the Vancouver Canucks in their most recent outing. Despite the loss, they remain one of the top scoring teams in the league and they lead the Pacific Division going into this matchup.
The Kings will likely rely on Darcy Kuemper, who has provided a calming presence in net on a defense-first squad that allows among the fewest goals in the league. His consistency could prove decisive in what may shape up as a tight game out west.
The Ducks may be dealing with uncertainty in goal. Lukas Dostal is listed as day-to-day going into this contest. He has looked good of late for the Ducks, but whether or not he can compete in this contest could help decide the outcome.
For Anaheim, forwards like Leo Carlsson and Cutter Gauthier stand out. Carlsson enters with 30 points this season and remains one of the league’s more explosive two-way players. Gauthier’s ability to convert chances has vaulted him to the top of the goal scoring charts with 14 goals for the Ducks. Adrian Kempe and Kevin Fiala will need to deliver offensively for the Kings. Los Angeles isn’t among the league’s elite scoring clubs, but timely contributions from their top forwards can tilt the game in their favor.
Player | Prop Type |
|---|---|
Leo Carlsson (Ducks) | Over 0.5 Points |
Cutter Gauthier (Ducks) | 1+ Goal |
Adrian Kempe (Kings) | Over 0.5 Points |
Score Projection: Los Angeles 2 – Anaheim 3
Win Probability: Los Angeles 45% – Anaheim 55%
This should be a highly competitive game and I am going to back the Ducks to continue their impressive start to the season here. The Ducks are 8-3-0 at home for the season and they should have what it takes to get another win on home ice against a Kings team that has dropped three of its last four games.
