Game: Los Angeles Kings (26-35-2-2) at Colorado Avalanche (33-26-3-3)
Faceoff: Sat, Mar, 1 – 8:00 PM ET
The Kings have been playing hard but they still haven’t been able to stop teams from scoring. Facing an Avs team who is getting healthier at the forward positions is not likely to help matters for Los Angeles either. Colorado is poised to go on a tear with their key guys back. Keep in mind that the Avs also got some important defensive help at the deadline with Foote and Salei.
Kings have lost back to back and they’ve averaged a staggering 5 GAG in their last three games. Colorado will be debuting Peter Forsberg tonight. They’ll be pumped up in Colorado. Bodog.com has Colorado as 220-moneyline favorites over the King +180. Go Colorado.
