Los Angeles Kings – Vancouver Canucks
In the next two games, I typically play against teams who have failed on their own ice rinks and are still fighting for this year's qualification for play-offs. The Los Angeles Kings will play their fifth home game today in a row and I am counting on the victory today, especially since Kings have suffered one of the worst defeats this season, succumbing to St. Louis Blues 2-7, who are not at their best at the moment. It's hard to tell what was the cause, but most likely fatigue and the fact that it was a "back to back" fight. For the charges of John Stevens, it was not a pleasant experience, given that Kings in front of their own audience this season is the third best defensive losing an average of 2.54 goals per game but you have to pick up, reset bad thoughts and get to work, because play-offs will not come themselves. The hosts are currently ninth with 79 points on the account and a balance of 36-31. They share one point to the eighth premium place and they have for one match played less than 8th place Anaheim Ducks, who will struggle at home with St. Louis Blues. Hockey players from Los Angeles have to score points with teams that will not play anything this season and after two days of break there is just such an opportunity with the 14th-placed Vancouver Canucks players. The upside for the locals is the fact that Canucks will play a match "back to back" today after yesterday's away defeat with Arizona Coyotes 0-1. Players led by coach Travis Green are in a series of three defeats in a row in which they scored just four goals (an average of 1.33 per game) and this is the penultimate team of the western conference in terms of away league matches (balance 13-21) and the third worst offensive with an average of 2.52 goals scored per match (away matches). Today, the team will miss one of the top Canchers shooters, 21-year-old Brock Boesera (29 goals, 26 assists), and the second goalkeeper will perform on goal - 27-year-old Anders Nilsson with a balance of 7 wins and 15 defeats and an average of 3.52 wasted goalsmatch in this 3.22 on trips. Nilsson did not play against Arizona last night, and lost four goals in 35 shots last time. In the home team, Jonathan Quick will most likely be in the balance between 26-27 and an average of 2.41 goals lost in home matches. 32 years old played in the match against St. Louis Blues and lost four goals, which was his worst feat from 10 league duels, so today against one of the weakest offensive in the west I count on a better disposition and avoiding simple mistakes, which took place in the previous match. For both teams it will be the fourth direct match this season, and for the Kings the second leg at home, where they succumbed to November 15 last year 2-3, and their balance with Canucks this season is 1-2. Los Angeles hockey players today have a chance to get to the best eight and in addition they play with Canucks, who had less than 24 hours to rest, which is why I bet on the winners in the regular time of the game.
