Next Monday night's NHL schedule will open its activities at 02:00 pm CST with the clash between the Los Angeles Kings and the Columbus Blue Jackets. For this game, the odds are supporting the Blue Jackets to win, a fact that makes sense when considering that Columbus’ offense has been way better than the Kings’.
Despite this, it cannot be forgotten that the Blue Jackets recently lost a three-game winning streak with their 5-4 overtime loss to the Utah Mammoth, a game during which their defense had deep issues during the third period. However, no announcements were recently made regarding the joining of defenders to their roster, so they are expected to keep struggling during the rest of the regular season.
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Kings currently are four points behind the Western Conference’s playoff mark, so each of their remaining regular season games will be key for them. Nevertheless, Artemi Panarin’s joining hasn’t really made an outstanding difference to the Kings’ offensive performance, as they scored more than three goals in only one of their last five games.
