The five-game road trip in the Western Conference road trip has gone about as well as the Los Angeles Kings (4-3-3) could've hoped for in the past week. This past season, the Kings and head coach Jim Hiller only picked up five points and two victories in their first five-game road trip.
The Kings have an opportunity to pick up four wins and nine points out of a possible 10 points in the Pacific Division standings early this regular season if it defeats the San Jose Sharks (2-5-2) in the finale of this five-game road trip in the West on Oct. 28.
Since the Kings defeated the Chicago Blackhawks by a score of 3-1 this past weekend on Sunday (Oct. 26), the Sharks are the last remaining team in the league this regular season without a regulation win this fall.
Here are the betting odds and spread information for the matchup between the Kings and Sharks in the five-game road trip finale at the SAP Center in San Jose, CA, on Oct. 28 at 8:00 p.m. PT.
