The Golden Knights are on a three-game win streak and are 3-2 over their last five games. Their recent success was at home in a 3-1 outing against the Vancouver Canucks.

Vegas landed a goal in the second to tie the game with the Canucks. However, the Golden Nights added two unanswered goals in the third period to push them ahead. Tomas Hertl landed the final goal in the third period, which gave him his 22nd on the season.

The Golden Knights are averaging 3.28 goals and are firing off 30.9 shots each matchup. Their defense has allowed 2.70 goals and 26.6 goals a game. This difference is appealing, and is slightly better on paper compared to the Kings.

Los Angeles Kings Betting Preview

The Kings were able to get back on track with a recent win, as they had a 2-1 shootout loss to the Anaheim Ducks prior to entering the break due to the 4-Nations Face-off games. Their recent win was a 5-3 showing against the Utah Hockey Club.

Utah was steadily able to add a goal per period, led by Barrett Hayton who scored all three. Despite the Kings allowing three goals by Hayton, their offense came through later in the game with two goals each in the second and third periods. Drew Doughty was key to their success with a goal and two assists.

Los Angeles put up 26 shots and allowed the Hockey Club to get 28 attempts. The Kings were slightly more aggressive with 24 hits as opposed to the Hockey Club getting 20. Power plays could have been bad for the Kings, as they allowed the Hockey Club to score on both of their attempts.

The Kings are accumulating 2.87 goals and 28.0 shots a game. Their defense has been holding teams to 2.54 goals and 25.6 shots a game. Their defense will need to be strong here to keep the Golden Knights under three goals.
