Following a 1-0 home loss to the Kings nine days ago, the Senators took off for a seven-game road trip. So far, so good for Ottawa. The Senators defeated Anaheim and San Jose to open their road swing, and now they get their chance for revenge against the Kings. They catch the Kings at low ebb. Since that victory against the Senators, the Kings have lost three in a row, falling by one goal each to the Capitals and Sharks on the road and then to the Bruins, 2-1, at home this past Friday. LA has played much better on the road than at home this season. The Kings are just 1-7 as hosts this season. Scoring has become an issue for the Kings, who have notched just six goals over the last four games. The Senators are playing much better than the Kings, winning five of their previous seven games. Given their poor home record, the Kings cannot be trusted to end their losing streak against a team playing better than them. Take the Senators.
