Browsing: penalty kill
Kings home opener Tuesday vs Florida at Crypto.com Arena: Los Angeles is 0-1-1 after Colorado and San Jose, the 60th-anniversary Fan Festival and retro mask giveaway are set, and Kuemper is only projected until Laviolette confirms.
Kings at Sharks game day: after an extensive video session and a tougher Friday practice, Laviolette targets rush defense against a fast San Jose team. Perry and Gustafsson are options to draw in, Kuemper is projected but unconfirmed, Ceci’s strong start, and the new alternate-captain rotation.
With one practice before Saturday’s Kings vs Sharks game at SAP Center, Peter Laviolette wants fewer penalties, a tighter penalty kill and better rush coverage. Plus what to keep from Denver, Friday’s lineup questions and a scouting report on a Sharks team fresh off an OT win over Florida.
The Kings lose to the Avalanche 8-4 in Peter Laviolette’s debut. Dumoulin, Armia, Moore and Panarin scored, two of them shorthanded, but Colorado’s four power-play goals and MacKinnon’s two goals and fight decided it. Kuemper made 21 saves; next up is Saturday at San Jose.
