T.M. Selection: LA Kings - ML

I like the Los Angeles Kings to win this game against the Vancouver Canucks on Monday. I know that the Kings have lost three straight games coming into this one, but they are in need of some wins to end the season. They currently sit at 100 points, good for 3rd in the Pacific. However, the Kraken are creeping up only two points behind them in the 1st Wild Card spot. The Kings should not want to play the Avs as they are the defending champs. They've struggled early in these losses as of late, and I don't think that will happen today. LAK beat the Canucks not long ago in a pretty easy one. Even if Korpisalo starts in net again for the Kings, they should be able to win this one on home ice. I've liked the Kings all season long and I fully believe that they can wake up and enter the playoffs feeling extremely confident.

T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Kings.

Line: -180

Line Parameter: play until -230..
