Game Preview
The Detroit Red Wings have enjoyed a strong start to the new NHL season, and they currently sit second in the Atlantic Division. They come into this round of games having gone 7-3-0 in the NHL this term, while their confidence will also be high after winning their previous two.
They were emphatic winners in their latest outing, as they cruised to a 5-2 success against the St. Louis Blues. Detroit had effectively put the game out of sight across the opening two periods after netting four times. Dylan Larkin was a standout performer in St. Louis, scoring twice and registering one assist.
Meanwhile, the LA Kings will also take confidence from their start to the campaign in the Western Conference. They sit third in the Pacific Division after going 5-2-3 across the opening weeks. Meanwhile, they come into this round after winning each of their previous two.
Their latest victory was picked up on the road against the San Jose Sharks, as they landed a 4-3 success. The Kings spread the goals around in that win, with Brandt Clarke, Corey Perry, and Drew Doughty all registering efforts in the dramatic success.
Red Wings vs. Kings Picks
The Kings may hold the head-to-head advantage, but it is hard to dismiss the start to the season that the Red Wings have enjoyed. Therefore, the away win could be the value angle when making Red Wings vs. Kings picks this Thursday.
