St. Louis at Los Angeles

Los Angeles is in double revenge after losing twice to the Blues this month, and the Kings will try to snap a five-game skid. Kings goalie Darcy Kuemper bounced back from a couple of rough outings and stopped 28 of 30 shots through overtime in the Kings' 3-2 shootout loss to the Blues on Wednesday. He is 18-8-7 with a 2.36 goals-against average and a .911 save percentage with two shutouts this season. Joel Hofer is expected to start for St. Louis and has a 3.08 GAA in 2024-25. The Kings have won 14 of their past 18 home games and they have won 19 of 26 home contests this season. St. Louis is playing a back-to-back after defeating Anaheim 4-3 last night. Take the Kings.
