San Jose Sharks will host Los Angeles Kings on Saturday night at SAP Center. The Sharks will be seeking to make it two wins on the bounce after defeating the Panthers 4-3 in OT on Thursday night. However, it was not a pretty win for the Sharks, who threw away a three-goal lead to let the Panthers back into the game. Still, they looked speedy and dominated the extra time before ending it on their sixth shot. The Sharks are the -120 betting favorites tonight.
Los Angeles Kings, on the other hand, will want to bounce back from their opening-day defeat against the Avalanche. The Kings were humbled 8-4 in Colorado, once again showing their defensive vulnerabilities. Despite the defeat, they took away some offensive positives, including Trevor Moore and Joel Armia, both of whom scored. In goal, Darcy Kuemper will desperately need to rebound after a tough outing in Colorado. The Kings are the -105 underdogs tonight.

Our San Jose Sharks vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction
The Sharks have recently dominated this fixture, going 4-2 in their last six meetings with the Kings. They also won both of their meetings last season, giving them a slight psychological edge. The Sharks showcased their offensive prowess in the season-opener after jumping to a three-goal lead. Their ability to find the back of the net should give them an edge over the Kings, who looked shaky at the back. But the Sharks also struggled at the back, putting them in a vulnerable position against the Kings, who notched four goals last time out. With both teams ranking seventh in goals, we expect a high-scoring game, with the total goals going over 5.5.
Our prediction for San Jose Sharks vs Los Angeles Kings: Over 5.5 goals
