The Kings have been riding a hot hand in the net in Jonathon Quick. He has started five of the six games for the Kings, and while the opponent scored 4 in the game he didn't start, no one has scored more than 2 in his five starts. Quick has not allowed a goal in his last two games, and for the season, just a stingy 6 in his five starts at 12 per contest. It has been enough to produce wins despite the slow start by the Kings’ attack, netting just 2.67 pucks per contest. Dallas enters at 6-1, and they too have had the hot hand between the pipes with Kari Lehtonen. Lehtonen rested in the Stars’ lone loss, where the opponent struck for 5 goals, but in his six behind the net, opponents have been held to 9 goals or 1.8 per contest. It is needless to say that goals and opportunities will be at a premium in this one tonight. The Kings are 43-19-4 to the UNDER as a favorite, so this one plays UNDER the total.
