Los Angeles is Top 10 in the NHL in goals allowed, while the offense is third in shots on goal per game. The Kings come off a 5-4 shootout loss at Pittsburgh last night. They've won two of the last three and are 14-5 after losing their previous game in overtime. They face a bad Detroit squad that is on a 1-10-2 slide. Detroit is last in the NHL in scoring (2.18), third-worst in shots on goal, while the defense is last in goals allowed (3.85). The Red Wings are 5-11-1 at home this season and 21-46 at home playing their third game in five days. Play Los Angeles for my NHL Game of the Month.
