This April 16th will be the last matchday of the NHL regular season, and even though all the qualified teams for the playoffs are already defined, some changes could still happen in the standings. In this regard, one of the teams that could get a better spot in the Western Conference standings is the Los Angeles Kings, which will play against the Calgary Flames on Canadian soil.
For this game, the odds favor the Los Angeles Kings to secure a victory, which is understandable given that the Calgary Flames have been one of the worst teams in the Western Conference this season. In this regard, it’s worth noting that the Flames were only able to win one of their last five games, a terrible streak that is based on a very ineffective offense.
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Kings recently lost a five-game winning streak with their most recent overtime loss to the Vancouver Canucks (4-3); nevertheless, they still are just one point behind the Anaheim Ducks in the Pacific Division. Taking this into account, this game will be the Kings' last chance to avoid qualifying for the playoffs as a Wild Card, so Alexis Lafreniere and Adrian Kempe should put their name on the scoreboard.
