The Kings are led by Kevin Fiala, who has 14 points (8 goals, 6 assists), and Trevor Moore, who has netted 3 goals this season. The Kings are riding a small wave of momentum as they have won their last two games, surrendering only one goal in both of those outings.

Los Angeles’ home advantage and superior defensive depth are likely to tip the scales in their favor. The Senators will need a stellar performance from Tkachuk and Stützle to remain competitive, but the Kings' consistent offense should prevail. Expect a 4-2 victory for Los Angeles as they leverage their depth and goaltending edge. Final Score Prediction, Los Angeles Kings win 4-2.
