=14.0ptThe Utah Hockey Club has come back to reality after a hot start to their season. After beginning things with a 3-0-0 mark, they have dropped 4 of their last 5 games. In 2 of those 4 losses, they were even shutout. Their last game was a 5-1 loss to Colorado at home. After falling behind 2-0 after the 1st period, the lead ballooned to 4-0 after 2 periods of play. Lawson Crouse scored the lone goal for Utah in the loss and Karel Vejmelka allowed a season high 5 goals while in net. Tonight, they head to LA to take on a Kings team that has been playing solid hockey lately. After losing 3 of their 1st four games, the Kings have won 3 of their last four. In their most recent game, against the San Jose Sharks, the Kings took a commanding 3-0 lead after the 1st period. However, they saw that lead cut to just a single goal with 1 minute to play, but were able to hunker down to take the 3-2 win. This should be a tight contest as these teams are nearly identical in goals scored, goals allowed, shooting percentage and assists. On paper, there should not be much that separates these teams.

Our Utah Mammoth vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction
=14.0ptWhile on paper, the resumes look similar, but Los Angeles has been the hotter team as of late. We like the Kings to take this one at home tonight. Darcy Kuemper will be in net for the Kings and he must have a better game than the 8 goals he allowed to Ottawa in his last start. Before that, he had given up just 2 to Boston and 1 to Buffalo. We like him and the Kings to take their 1st meeting with the Utah Hockey Club.
=14.0ptOur prediction for Los Angeles Kings vs Utah Hockey Club:=14.0pt Los Angeles to win, -150 at Draftkings.
