The Kings recovered from a 1-3 loss to the New Jersey Devils after trouncing the New York Rangers 5-1 on December 14. Los Angeles scored two goals in the first period and added three more to build a commanding 5-0 lead entering the final frame. Alex Turcote, Warren Foegele and Adrian Kempe all tallied a goal and an assist in a dominant victory by the Kings, who improved 18-9-3 (39 points) this season. The Penguins suffered their second loss in three games in an overtime game against the Ottawa Senators 2-3. After going scoreless in the first and second period, Pittsburgh began to make a move in the third starting off with a goal by Blake Lizotte at the 2:40 mark of the frame. Drake Batherson slapped in a goal to put Ottawa ahead 2-1, but the Penguins would not fall without giving a fight as Kris Letang sent the game to overtime with an unassisted goal at the 12:42 mark. But tragedy could not be avoided for Pittsburgh as Brady Tkachuk delivered the coup de grace at the 1:46 minute of the OT. The loss brought the Penguins’ slate down to 13-14-5 (31 pts).

Our Pittsburgh Penguins vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction
The Kings hold a 6-1-3 record in their last 10 meetings with the Penguins and 2-0-1 in their last three encounters. LA is just 2-3 ATS in their last five road games so I wouldn’t advise betting on an ATS win against the Penguins who have covered the spread in four of their last six home games. The Kings are still a solid pick for a straight-up win though because of a 7-1 record in their last 8 games. Our betting prediction for the LA Kings vs. Pittsburgh Penguins: Kings to win.
