Storyline Of The Day – Home Cooking

The Kings have been dominant at home this season, boasting an impressive 16-3-1 record. The team thrives in front of their fans and has excelled against playoff-caliber teams.

3 To Watch For

  1. Goaltender Darcy Kuemper will not start tonight as he welcomed his second child. He is expected to play later after this family time.
  2. Forward Alex Laferriere has returned from injury and is making a positive impact on the team.
  3. Defenseman Brandt Clarke’s confidence remains high despite recent challenges, showcasing his resilience and effectiveness on the ice.

With two games remaining before the break, the Kings aim to continue their strong home performance against the Dallas Stars tonight and the Anaheim Ducks tomorrow.
