LA Kings Host Rival San Jose Sharks
- Updated: December 22, 2015
The LA Kings are finally home! After a long road trip and a game that we’d like to forget the Kings are home to take on their rival San Jose Sharks.
Los Angeles has done a great job of protecting their home ice lately. They have won six straight home contests and look to win lucky number seven.
San Jose comes into this game with a 16-15-2 record while the Kings are leading the Pacific division with a 20-10-2 clip.
San Jose will most likely be without out Joel Ward. He is listed as doubtful due to an undisclosed injury. He was scratched on Sunday’s game with the Chicago Blackhawks. Melker Karlsson is currently listed as probable as well. He is fighting an illness and missed Sunday’s game as well.
Goaltender Martin Jones is coming off a game where he conceded four goals. He will return to Staples Center where he spent last season before the offseason trade.
The Sharks are led by Joe Pavelski who has 33 points on the season. He has 16 goals and 17 assists. Brent Burns is a close second on the club with 28 points, 12 goals and 16 assists.
San Jose is struggling as a whole this month. They have lost eight of their last ten games. Los Angeles has a golden opportunity to kick a rival while their down and I expect them to take full advantage of this.
