Late this weekend will be the end marker for the season-long, six-game road trip (reduced down to five games this past week) for Jim Hiller and the Los Angeles Kings (23-17-13) in the back end of back-to-back games on Sunday afternoon (Feb. 1) against Rod Brind'Amour and the Carolina Hurricanes (33-15-6) in the Metro Division.
Hiller and the Kings are facing one of the top teams in the league in the NHL this afternoon vs. the Hurricanes on the road in North Carolina late this weekend. The Kings have a big opportunity to build momentum in the West in the Pacific Division this weekend, coming into Raleigh this afternoon with a solid record of 3-1-0 on this road trip in the East.
Yesterday's big 3-2 overtime win over the Philadelphia Flyers on the road in Pennsylvania was a clutch two points in the standings where the team overcame third-period adversity in the final frame.
Amid the inclement winter weather in Raleigh this weekend in early February, the Kings and Hurricanes will be reportedly sharing a modified broadcast production this afternoon at the Lenovo Center in North Carolina.
Here's a look at the TV/streaming information, start time, and radio broadcast information for the matchup between the Kings and Hurricanes in the back end of back-to-back games and the final contest in the road trip in the Eastern Conference this weekend on the road at the Lenovo Center in Raleigh, NC, on Feb. 1.
