Los Angeles at Florida

The Los Angeles Kings are dynamite on defense, second in goals allowed, and tops in penalty killing. The Kings are on a 4-1 run allowing eight total goals, including a pair of shutouts. Goalie Darcy Kuemper shut out Dallas and Arizona last week and turned aside 25 shots in Los Angeles' 5-2 win versus Edmonton on Wednesday. He also made 24 saves in a 4-0 win over Florida earlier in the season. He has stepped up in place of Jonathan Quick with a 1.17 goals-against average and .969 save percentage in his last five appearances. The Kings are on a 33-15-7 run UNDER the total on the road, plus 19-9-4 UNDER away against a team with a winning home record. Los Angeles is #17 on offense in goals scored and faces a Florida squad that is #19 in goals, #27 on the power play. The Panthers are better on defense, winning four in a row allowing six total goals. Goaltender Harri Sateri was named the NHL's Second Star of the Week on Monday after Florida's 3-1 victory versus Vancouver. With the UNDER 7-2-3 when these teams clash, this shapes up as another game with much more defense than offense. Play this one to finish UNDER.
