The Los Angeles Kings will take on the Washington Capitals tonight in California. The Kings are looking for their fourth consecutive league win.
In the last game the Kings played, Tyler Toffoli scored his first career hat trick for the Kings. ESPN.com reports the following on the Kings:
“It’s a personal accomplishment, but we’re a pretty tight-knit group here and individual stats don’t really mean a whole lot,” Toffoli said. “At this time of the year, it’s huge just to get wins. We’re just trying to win games and get consistent. It’s our third straight, and we’ve got to keep going.”
The Kings have scored 13 goals during their winning streak, with Toffoli netting five. The 22-year-old winger has a team-high 18 on the season and six in seven games after missing the previous six with a concussion.
“I think Tyler’s been doing a really good job,” said center Jeff Carter, who had two of his three assists against Calgary on Toffoli’s goals. “Obviously, there’s going to be ups and downs, and we’ve all had streaks where the puck hasn’t been going in for us. But Tyler’s really strong in his own end and plays the right way. He battles on the walls and makes plays to the centerman, which makes my job a heck of a lot easier. For a young guy, he’s pretty impressive.”
The Washington Capitals record is currently 29-16-0. ESPN.com reports:
“Joel Ward scored the winner and Jay Beagle added two goals for Washington, which has won four of five and holds one of the East’s wild-card spots.
“To get the first win at the start of a tough road trip, a tough four games here, that’s huge,” Beagle said. “It’s a big momentum boost and we’re looking forward to L.A. now.”
Braden Holtby admitted to not being as sharp as he’d like to have been against the Sharks, but he made 26 saves to improve to 4-1-1 since Jan. 28. He had a 0.80 goals-against average and two shutouts over his previous five starts, including a 27-save effort in his first career outing against Los Angeles.”
