The Los Angeles Kings visit the San Jose Sharks in a matchup that has taken very little thought as of late. The home team has won the past four meetings, and only one of them was within the puckline. That would be a major departure for the Kings, who have been working overtime on an almost nightly basis.
Out of 10 games this season, the Kings have gone to overtime six times, including four of their past five. They’ve managed to split those games, mainly because the defense has done just enough to get the win. The Kings’ success has essentially been tied to their defense, as they’ve only managed one win all year when they gave up more than two goals. On the flip side, they’ve gone 3-0 when they don’t allow a third goal.

Our San Jose Sharks vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction
San Jose clearly still has a long way to go before it’s a contender again. The Sharks’ biggest problem is in the shot totals: they rank next-to-last in shots generated and dead last in shots allowed on goal. They can’t stop the power play, and they’ve allowed the most goals in the league.
That said, the offense keeps the Sharks in the game almost every time. San Jose has chosen to build around its young skaters, and that’s led to a lot of high-scoring contests. The low total should be within reach; however, a total that low says that something’s up with this game. Instead, it’s a better idea to expect the Kings to do what they almost always do: let the opposition hang around and go another five minutes. Getting a free goal with the Sharks makes sense here. Our prediction for Los Angeles vs. San Jose is Sharks +1.5.
