I don't mean to make this sound so extreme, but this upcoming next few stretch of games in the West in the Pacific Division this regular season on the ice probably determines what will happen this upcoming postseason in the playoffs for the Los Angeles Kings (28-25-17) and new interim head coach DJ Smith.
On Tuesday night, the Kings face the Calgary Flames (29-34-7) in the Pacific Division on the road early this week, north of the border on March 24. If the Kings want to make a serious run at the playoffs this upcoming postseason this spring in the next couple of months in the West, they need a win in the standings tonight vs. Calgary on the road north of the border in Canada vs. the Flames.
The Kings need to play better and more consistent offensively in the zone, and provide more run support to starting goalie Darcy Kuemper in the Pacific Division on the road tonight.
Here's a look at the TV/streaming information, start time, and radio broadcast information for the matchup between the Kings and Flames on the road at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, AB, on March 24.
