This is the sixth road game over the last nine contests for Los Angeles, losing three of five. They lost the last two on the road as chalk, 4-1 and 2-1. Goalie Jonathan Quick lost all three games on the recent road trip and wasn't at his best Saturday either in a 6-4 win over Edmonton. He's allowed nine goals in two starts against the Sharks this season, and the Kings are 3-7 in their last 10 road games. They head North to meet a San Jose squad playing its sixth straight home game. San Jose is #3 in the NHL in goals scored, #4 on the power play, and #14 in goals allowed. San Jose is four points behind Anaheim for second in the Pacific and has one of the league's best power plays at 22.1 percent. The Sharks are 8-2 against a team with a winning record and the home team is 27-11 in the last 38 meetings. Play San Jose.
