Game Preview
Bruce Cassidy will take huge confidence from his team’s start to the season, and that leaves them in a very strong position to finish in a playoff spot in 2025-26.
The Vegas Golden Knights have gone 27-16-14 this term, leaving them at the top of the Pacific Division. They also enjoyed a two-game winning run before the start of the Winter Olympics.
Plenty of their stars will also come back to the NHL in good confidence after starring in the USA’s historic gold medal success in Italy. Among those include leading points-scorer Jack Eichel, who has accumulated 68 points for the Golden Knights in the NHL this term.
There is likely to be more pressure on the home team on Wednesday, as the LA Kings sit in a low position in the Pacific Division. The Kings have gone 23-19-14 this term, and they come into the restart following defeats in their previous three before the Winter Olympic break.
Jim Hiller’s team have especially struggled in home games this season, losing eleven of their 26 at Crypto.com Arena in regulation time. Adrian Kempe is the standout player for the franchise, setting season-best tallies for goals, assists, and points for the Kings.
Vegas Golden Knights vs. LA Kings Picks
The Kings have underperformed so far this calendar year, but the break could have come at a good time. However, the preference remains for the Golden Knights, who have been efficient in the Pacific Division throughout the campaign.
