Whoever wins between the Los Angeles Kings (29-17-10) and Edmonton Oilers (33-20-2) on Monday night will have sole possession of third place in the Pacific Division. It’ll be the third meeting between these teams this season.
Los Angeles won the latest matchup against the Oilers on February 10, a 4-0 shutout at home. They’re 5-1-0 in their past six games, including an impressive 5-4 comeback in Boston. It seems that all signs of their January slump are in the past.
Meanwhile, Edmonton is looking to snap a three-game losing streak. They allowed 16 total goals during those losses and have surrendered at least three goals in every game this month. The Oilers won the first battle of the season against the Kings 3-2 in a shootout.
Tonight’s game could end up deciding who is the Western Conference‘s top wild-card spot this season. Will it be the Kings or the Oilers avoiding that fate?
