Los Angeles at Arizona

The Kings (9-4) shot down the Stars in Dallas last night, 6-3, and have won three of their last four games. Defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky continues score for LA, tallying a hat trick against Dallas last night. Leading all NHL defensemen with 18 points this 5 year vet has come out of the shadows. The Kings are first in their division with 9 wins while the Coyotes are last with only 5 wins. The Coyotes just lost Petr Nedved for two weeks with an elbow injury and have lost 4 out of their last 6. The problem for the Coyotes is defense. They are 14th in the league with 2.93 GAA and 16th in the league with 41 GA. LA is 29-5 when they allow 2 or less goals over the last 3 seasons. The Kings will play well tonight in Pheonix. Take Los Angeles for one star over the Coyotes.
