Los Angeles Kings
USALos Angeles are back at home, where they fully redeemed themselves for a terrible road trip. The Kings crushed Pittsburgh with a score of 6:0. Forward Kempe delivered four goals, and goalie Copley had a shutout performance. The Kings have gained momentum and will be looking to get back into the top three in the West.
Buffalo Sabres

Tip and bets
Los Angeles look much more impressive this season than in the last NHL campaign. They can even fight for leadership in theit conference and make a deep run in the playoffs.
