Los Angeles got its first win in a big way defeating Winnipeg 5-1 on Tuesday night as Trevor Moore had two goals and an assist, with PLD sticking it to his old team. Cam Talbot stopped 26 shots for the Kings and he is likely in net tonight with a 2.28 goals-against average and .929 save percentage in 15 career starts against the Wild. The Kings finished #10 in the league with 3.34 goals per game in 2022-23 and that was a big improvement from 2.87 the previous year. They are looking to do even better this season and they scored 10 goals the past two games against Carolina and the Jets. Minnesota has won two of three after beating Montreal 5-2, and Marc-Andre Fleury had 27 saves in his first start of the season. Filip Gustavsson is probable tonight and he has a 3.50 GAA in his two starts. Los Angeles ended 2022-23 with a 20-8 record after allowing two or fewer goals its previous game. Take the Kings - Max Play.
