[10:00 PM] Canucks @ Kings

Who will WIN this matchup?

Vancouver Canucks (4-0-0)

@ Los Angeles Kings (1-3-0)

 

Starting Goalies:

Jacob Markstrom(VAN): Confirmed

Peter Budaj(LA): Likely

 

Current odds:

Vancouver Canucks: (+145)

Los Angeles Kings: (-165)

 

Markstrom stopped 26 of 27 shots in the Canucks win over the Sabres on Thursday. Markstrom has won each of his first three starts while posting a 1.65 GAA and .932 SV%. He has had a great start to the year and draws a great matchup against a struggling Kings team.

Jeff Zatkoff was injured in practice this afternoon, so it looks like Budaj will get a second straight start in the Kings’ crease. Budaj stopped 17 of 20 shots in the Kings’ win on Thursday and he has a solid matchup tonight vs. the Canucks. Vancouver may be unbeaten, but they’ve only scored nine goals in four games.
