| | | LOS ANGELES: LAST SEASON: 48-28-6, 102 points. Second in Pacific Division. Lost to San Jose in first round.
COACH: Darryl Sutter (sixth season, 17th NHL season).
ADDED: LW Teddy Purcell, D Tom Gilbert, G Jeff Zatkoff.
LOST: LW Milan Lucic, C Vincent Lecavalier, D Luke Schenn, RW Kris Versteeg.
PLAYER TO WATCH: C Anze Kopitar. The Kings' newly appointed captain is also a newly minted Selke Trophy winner. He already carried a large chunk of their offensive responsibilities, but he must grow as a leader to keep Los Angeles competitive in what could be a challenging start to the season.
OUTLOOK: After a first-round postseason flop erased much of the good feelings from a strong regular season, the Kings will again rely on the indefinable strength of their championship-winning core to contend after making no significant offseason additions. Yet after two Stanley Cup runs that came out of seemingly nowhere, nobody will ever underestimate the Kings in the spring. | | CALGARY: LAST SEASON: 35-36-11, 81 points. Finished 23rd in NHL after two consecutive last-place finishes, and missed playoffs for fifth consecutive season.
COACH: Dan Bylsma (second season, eighth NHL season)
ADDED: F Kyle Okposo, D Dmitry Kulikov, G Anders Nilsson.
LOST: F David Legwand, D Mark Pysyk, G Chad Johnson.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Jack Eichel. Selected with the No. 2 pick in the 2015 draft behind Edmonton's Connor McDavid, Eichel finished second among NHL rookies with 56 points (24 goals, 32 assists). The 19-year-old displayed breakaway speed and a powerful shot. Eichel is being counted upon to become more consistent now that he has a full season behind him. Eichel went through an 11-game slump spanning November and December, during which he combined for a goal and three assists.
OUTLOOK: The expectations are higher for a Sabres team that made the jump from rock bottom to being relevant by finishing 23rd last season following two consecutive last place finishes. Though missed playoffs for fifth consecutive year, Buffalo showed signs of jelling by closing last year with a 16-10-7 run. Additions of Okposo and Kulikov adds experienced top-line depth to young core. Big question mark is whether G Robin Lehner can establish himself as trusted starter after two injury-shortened seasons. |
| | Flames can clinch playoffs vs. Kings
CALGARY, Alberta -- Both teams know what's at stake. All the Calgary Flames (43-29-4) need to do is beat the Los Angeles Kings at home on Wednesday to clinch an NHL playoff berth after a one-year absence. "We've put ourselves in a good spot," Calgary captain Mark Giordano said Tuesday, a day after the Flames beat the Colorado Avalanche 4-2 at the Scotiabank Saddledome. "We have to take care of business. It's a good feeling and we're going to have a lot of energy and excitement." The Kings (35-33-7), who dropped a 2-1 road decision to the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday, need to win just to keep their slim postseason hopes alive. "Not the situation we wanted to be in, that's for sure," Kings center Jeff Carter said. "You get to this time of the year, you want to be locking up spots and getting ready for a big push. Like I said, a little different, but we'll keep fighting until the end." Calgary coach Glen Gulutzan said he expects nothing less than a solid effort from the Kings, who have lost two games in a row. "I know how good a team they are," Gulutzan said. "They're fighting for their lives and those teams are very hard to play, and I expect the best of the L.A. Kings to come into our building." Two seasons ago, the Flames beat the Kings 3-1 at home on April 9, to qualify for postseason play for the first time since 2009. "We're going to be playing a desperate team, which is the same case," Flames center Matt Stajan told the team website. "The difference is we're in a better spot and we still have a chance to try to sneak in and get some home ice and position ourselves a little better. It's a totally different season in a lot of ways and we have a different team, but the scenario is similar. We control our own fate." After Los Angeles blanked Calgary 5-0 at Staples Center in November, the Flames bounced back with a 2-1 overtime win at the Saddledome in Calgary on Feb. 28 before also beating the Kings 4-2 at home on March 19. Los Angeles captain Anze Kopitar said that the Kings have been playing well but haven't been getting the results they got earlier in the season. "I think part of it is the confidence factor," Kopitar said. "It doesn't seem like we're playing with confidence and the swagger that we need to play and we have played in the past. So we've got to find that somehow." A loss to the Flames won't mathematically eliminate the Kings from playoff contention. They would still have a slim chance to catch either the St. Louis Blues (depending on the result of their road game against the Arizona Coyotes on Wednesday) or Nashville Predators for the final Western Conference wild-card berth. Asked what the Kings hope to accomplish in the final two weeks of the season, Kopitar said, "Play and try, obviously, to win as many games as we can." |
