Los Angeles has its top goalie in net, Jon Quick, and is tops in the NHL in goals allowed (2.1 per game), and second in penalty killing. It's the third straight road game for the Kings, off a 3-2 loss at Toronto last night as part of a 19-6-6 run UNDER the total on the road. Los Angeles is also 10-2-5 UNDER when playing on no days of rest. Ottawa is third in the league in goals allowed (2.4 pg) and tops in penalty killing. The team will be without Bobby Ryan (six assists in eight games this season) for one month, as the right wing broke his right index finger the last game. This shapes up as a conservative, defensive duel and the Senators are on a 33-16-3 run UNDER at home. Under head man Guy Boucher, the Senators are just 12-25 after a blowout win by 3+ goals including 1-10 if that win came against a division rival. It's letdown time for his team, so play Los Angeles and the UNDER here.
