After undergoing a horrid loss on home ice this past weekend vs. the Utah Mammoth in the West, the Los Angeles Kings (29-26-18) and new interim head coach DJ Smith must regroup and get ready for the front end of back-to-back games at Crypto.com Arena in the middle of this week on Wednesday (April 1) and Thursday (April 2).
The Kings need to completely rebound from a bad performance on home ice when Smith and staff face the St. Louis Blues (31-31-11) tonight. If the Kings can get a victory in the standings in the West tonight, it would move them into an outright hold of a wildcard spot this upcoming postseason in the playoffs this spring.
It looks like changes to the active roster lineup could be destined for tonight on home ice vs. the Blues for Smith and the Kings and the coaching staff, including on the blue line on defense. We'll probably see both goalies start for the Kings and Smith in the next couple of days in back-to-back games in the West, including Darcy Kuemper and Anton Forsberg.
Here's a look at the TV/streaming information, start time, and radio broadcast information for the matchup between the Kings and Blues in the front end of back-to-back games at home at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, CA, on April 1.
