MASSIVE slate of games Saturday on the pond I cannot wait gals and guys. For whatever reason we are starting with the late game again didn’t mean for it to go that way but screw it.
In this one we see the rotten fish sticks (New York Islanders) travel to tinsel town to take on the Kings who play tonight against the Ducks so a back to backer for them.
Pending how they look tonight against the Ducks my gut leans to the Kings on this one for obvious reasons. They are playing pretty darn well as of late and are pushing for the playoffs with the apparent hopes of going on a run with their ageing core.
So with that in mind, let’s dig a little deeper into this one and hammer something.
New York Islanders
The Islanders are having a dreadful campaign for a number of reasons but I am not willing to write them off yet and say they need to tear down and rebuild. As you may recall they had a terrible battle with the c-word to start the year and their new home was behind schedule.
The first 20 odd games of their season were played on the road and without a plethora of their starters. This team still bolsters some very high end talent both on offence and defence.

They have some obvious flaws in their game but they are well coached and very disciplined. I think it’s safe to write this year off at this point but I don’t anticipate them being huge sellers at the deadline or anything to clean house.
They will be back next year somewhat re-tooled and looking to get back to their winning ways.
Los Angeles Kings
I have written about the Kings quite a bit this season and to tell you the truth they still have the recipe for success in the playoffs. They will have a tough time against the big boys in the west who are in their prime but this team has a ton of experience and toughness.
They also have some nasty young guns who are going to be stars for some time to come like Adrian Kempe.
They are winners of three straight games and and are scoring at a rate of just about 3 goals per game. Cal Petersen is expected to start this one which comes as no surprise as Quick draws in for the tougher opponent tonight.

Free New York Islanders vs. Los Angeles Kings NHL Prediction
I am going with the Kings moneyline in this one. I don’t love their backup goalie being in but I just cannot trust the Islanders to get a road win this season.
They are 4-4-2 in their last ten games and 9-10-4 on the road this year. They also rank near the bottom of the league in offence created.
29th in the league in goals per game with 2.51 and 24th in the league in shots on goal per game with 29.5.
So hammer the Kings in this one for the late game. Good Luck!
