Why bet on the LA Kings
The Kings (19-9-2) are in the midst of a pretty brutal 6-game road trip that has seen them split the first 4 games. They have dropped their last two, and now have a road record of 8-4-2 on the season. LA does seem to raise their game when facing a tougher opponent on the road, and have gone 5-1 in their last 6 games against teams with a winning percentage of .600 or higher. They are also 9-2 straight up when going against teams with a winning record. LA also does well when they get a little bit of a break, and have gone 4-1 in their last 5 games played after a 2-day rest.Why bet on the Montreal Canadiens
The Canadiens (20-9-3) are undoubtedly one of the best teams in the league, but injuries in net have seen them drop 5 of their last 6 games. Despite those injuries, the defense is still playing well, but it is the offense that has dried up in the past couple of weeks. Montreal is another team that seems to thrive on playing better teams, and they have gone 4-1 straight up in their last 5 games against teams with a winning percentage of .600 or higher. The Canadiens are also a solid 6-2 in their last 8 games when playing on a day’s rest. Where they have struggled is in games against Pacific Division opponents, going just 4-10 in their last 14 games.
