Jim Hiller and the Los Angeles Kings (19-16-12) could be facing dire times in the West in the Pacific Division this weekend if they lose back-to-back games in a home-and-home series vs. the Anaheim Ducks (23-21-3) on the road on Saturday night (Jan. 17). The Kings are looking to avoid three straight losses in the West in the Pacific Division this week and this current weekend in the standings.
Los Angeles Kings need a win on the road tonight vs. Anaheim in the Pacific Division
Facing teams in the Pacific Division this weekend, the Kings really need to start piling up wins in the standings in the West this regular season in the next few weeks. Losses in overtime and shootouts to get one point in the standings in the West won't get it done down the stretch for Hiller and staff this regular season.
The Kings and Ducks are only separated by one point in the standings in the West in the Pacific Division this regular season. It is crucial for Hiller and the Kings to come out of tonight's game vs. the Ducks in the Pacific Division with a win and two points in the standings. A win in regulation would help to create more separation for the Kings and Ducks tonight.
