Blue Tonight Claim Edge With Kings

Hockey Betting Lines

Stamkos has three goals and five points over his last two games and is tied for the NHL lead with 19 goals on the season.

 

Tom Pyatt, Ryan Malone and Nate Thompson each scored in the second period to give the Lightning a 4-2 lead, only to have Rene Bourque and Olli Jokinen score in the third period to salvage a point for Calgary. Mathieu Garon earned the win for Tampa with a 23-save effort.

 

Columbus, which is last in the NHL with 22 points, has lost three of its last four games to post a 1-2-1 record during a five-game homestand that ends tonight. Overall, the Blue Jackets are 6-9-2 as the host this season.

 

Jeff Carter lit the lamp for a fourth consecutive contest for the Blue Jackets, while Curtis Sanford turned aside 39-of-41 shots in defeat.

 

Blue Jackets forward Derek Dorsett could play tonight after sitting out the last two games with a lower body injury.

 

The Kings sit last in the NHL with 2.13 goals per game and have been held to a pair of goals or less in 10 straight outings. Los Angeles' front office had enough of the lack of production on Monday, firing head coach Terry Murray and replacing him on an interim basis with assistant John Stevens.

 

Both goals came in the third period and were scored by Dustin Brown and Davis Drewiske, while Jonathan Quick made 24 saves.

 

"The status doesn't change; it still feels like a win," Stevens said. "It was just a big win for our team considering the slide we've been on here. I just thought the guys played extremely hard tonight."

 

The Red Wings did have a three-game win streak snapped on Thursday with a 4-3 setback at the Predators, who got a pair of goals from Shea Weber in the third period.

 

"It was kind of a lucky bounce for them," Detroit's Nicklas Lidstrom added of the game-winner. "But they were going to the net and creating the traffic there."

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Sabres were able to end a six-game slide to the Penguins in an October meeting that was minus Pittsburgh captain Sidney Crosby due to post-concussion syndrome. With the Pens' superstar once again sidelined, Buffalo will look to take advantage once more tonight in Pittsburgh and win consecutive games for the first time in over a month.
