Watching them flying over the lake was a breathtaking spectacle. In the last meeting, making today’s -175 line seem a little long when you consider home ice is worth roughly 25 points. The Canadiens have struggled to get going in the opening frame in their last four home games. The Habs conceded eight goals and scored one in their last four opening frames at the Bell Centre.
In addition, Carrlyn Bathe is back for her fifth season to deliver interviews, reports and social media updates surrounding home and road telecasts. Over the last 30 days , Toronto has allowed just 17 goals in the first AND second periods while only seeing a combined 1.43 third-period goals. Toronto’s M/O of late is to get the lead and defend and it’s been a successful strategy. They’re when leading after the first period across their last 14 games. Sheldon Keefe has done an impressive job in getting his players committed to a defensive game and it also helps when you are getting the best goaltending in hockey. Matt Murray stole the show in Dallas on Tuesday as the Leafs blanked the highest-scoring team 4-0.

He draws so much attention on the ice, scores, and sets up his teammates. Toronto needs to give him the puck and let him do his thing. Toronto averages over three goals a game on less than 31 shots. That is an efficient statline, so it goes without saying that if they increased their shot output to 35, they could have four goals. This is increasingly true today, as they will face one of Los Angeles’ subpar goaltenders. Drew Doughty is still competent in that role, but the rest could use some help.
The Kings will play 14 home games on Saturdays at Crypto.com Arena and 22 Saturday games in total. The Kings will play 10 road games on a Thursday, leading the way for the weekday calendar. Behind the 22 games on Saturday, the Kings will total 19 games apiece on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Fiala has nine goals and 21 assists, and Kopitar has seven goals and 17 assists. They will both need to bring their A-game in this tough matchup.

Similar to last season, Friday evenings will not be on ice in Los Angeles. The Kings won’t play a single home game on a Friday this season, with just six total Friday games, all on the road. Wednesday will be the quietest day of the week overall for the Kings, with a total of just two games on that date, one home and one away. In the Central Division, the Kings will host Arizona, Dallas, St. Louis and Winnipeg twice and visit each team once. The Kings will host Chicago, Colorado, Minnesota and Nashville once, visiting each city twice.
Murray will be on the bench tonight but Toronto is in good hands with Ilya Samsonov. Last season saw a three-week break inserted for participation in the Winter Olympics, though NHL players ultimately did not attend. This season, the Kings have a ten-day break around the 2023 NHL All-Star Weekend in Florida. Unlike last season, April is back to its shortened nature, with the Kings playing just seven regular-season games, ending on 4/13. With that in mind, the league will return to more normal calendar with the first round of the postseason coming in April as opposed to May.

While that indeed looks to be happening tonight, the fact Copley already has a start — and a win — for coach Todd McLellan is the surprising part. For additional team information, visit LAKings.com and call KINGS-LA. Caufield cut the Canadiens’ deficit to one goal with just over two minutes remaining.
He will be an x-factor today against this defensively weak Kings team. The Kings are an offensively gifted team but struggle on the defensive side and have poor goaltending. I expect them to make the Playoffs, but they will not make a run unless they bring in better defensemen or a new goaltender. The 2023 Honda NHL All-Star Weekend will include the Honda NHL All-Star Game on Saturday, Feb. 4 and NHL All-Star Skills on Friday, Feb. 3. Kings television play-by-play announcer Alex Faust returns for his sixth season and is joined by analyst Jim Fox in the Kings broadcast booth. Fox, the former Kings forward, enters his 33rd season as the club’s television analyst.
Kings vs Maple Leafs best odds
I visited it in winter so I can't say what is a service quality. But it seems to have everything one can need to relax on the beach or enjoy water sports. There is a bicycle path around the whole lake and marked hiking trail. Although the lake is intensively commercially used you can find there a beautiful nature and even a natural reservation.

Arvidsson is probably feeling pretty good about himself and has some extra confidence after the last game. He needs to take advantage of that confidence and use it to light up the Maple Leafs. Even though he had two goals last game, he is not known for scoring, which is why he can catch the Maple Leafs off guard. Auston Matthews is a wizard with the puck and averaging over one point a game.
The Leafs’ power play has just one goal over its last three games but should get plenty of chances tonight vs. a bad PK. The last meeting saw 10 total power plays and hockey fans know that officials tend to keep penalties even. With the Kings having one of the best power plays in the league, if they score, look for the Leafs to draw the next penalty. He’s played just one game since November 5 but is still 7-2 SU over his nine games.
Scored twice on the power play in a 4-2 win when the Leafs were playing their worst hockey of the season. The Leafs’ recent struggles on the power play can easily be traced to its opponents as the Buds have faced seven Top-15 PK teams over their last eight games including five Top-7 penalty-killing teams. Because of that, we might be getting a better price on the Leafs’ power-play props and Marner at +150 to get a PP point and extend his streak is the best value on the board. The Leafs’ power play has a great opportunity tonight vs. an L.A.
