| | | LOS ANGELES: LAST SEASON: 45-29-8, 98 points. Fourth place Pacific Division. LOST to Vegas Golden Knights in first round.
COACH: John Stevens (second season, sixth NHL season).
ADDED: LW Ilya Kovalchuk
LOST: D Christian Folin, D Kevin Gravel, RW Tobias Rieder, D Jordan Subban, G Scott Wedgewood PLAYER TO WATCH: Anze Kopitar. The center and Kings captain had a 40-point improvement last season, going from 52 points to a career-high 92 and finishing third in voting for the league MVP. He should be part of a formidable line with the addition of Kovalchuk ' who returns to the NHL after five seasons playing professionally in Russia ' and Dustin Brown.
OUTLOOK: The Kings have not advanced past the first round of the playoffs since winning the Stanley Cup in 2014 and could be hard-pressed to advance this season. They have one of the oldest rosters in the league with nine players who are 30 or older. They also remain challenged to find consistent goal scorers beyond the first line. | | DALLAS: LAST SEASON: 42-32-8. Sixth in Central Division.
COACH: Jim Montgomery (first season, first NHL season).
ADDED: LW Blake Comeau, RW Valeri Nichushkin, D Roman Polak, G Anton Khudobin.
LOST: F Antoine Roussel, F Curtis McKenzie. D Dan Hamhuis, D Greg Pateryn, G Kari Lehtonen.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Five-time All-Star center Tyler Seguin won't have to answer questions about his future in Dallas. The 26-year-old Seguin, who could have been an unrestricted free agent after this season, should be free from distractions after signing a nearly $80 million, eight-year contract extension through the 2026-27 season. Seguin had a career-high 40 goals last season.
OUTLOOK: Montgomery makes the jump from the college ranks (University of Denver), where he had an offensive team. As a first-time NHL COACH, he has the prolific scoring duo of Seguin and 29-year-old team captain Jamie Benn (signed through 2024-25) on a line with Alexander Radulov. But the Stars have to get more consistent scoring outside of that top line. On defense, John Klingberg led all NHL defensemen with 59 assists last season, and Marc Methot is healthy after being limited 36 games in his Dallas debut. Only a late slide kept the Stars out of the playoffs last season ' they missed the postseason for the eighth time in 10 seasons. |
| | When Stars host Kings, will anyone actually score?
Returning home hasn't pulled Dallas out of its scoring doldrums. Perhaps playing Los Angeles will. The Star host the Kings on Thursday night at the American Airlines Center in downtown Dallas. The Stars entered last weekend ready to make some noise and capitalize on the momentum they believed they would gain from a six-game homestand, but they have lost the first two games -- albeit to two of the league's hottest goaltenders in St. Louis rookie Jordan Binnington and Tampa Bay's Andrei Vasilevskiy. Dallas (23-20-4, 50 points) has lost three straight, including a 2-0 setback on Tuesday to league-leading Tampa Bay despite outshooting the Lightning 35-21, including 25-17 during even-strength play. The Stars had their chances, with six power-play opportunities -- matching their season high -- but could not solve Vasilevskiy. "We had a good game tonight," Stars coach Jim Montgomery told NHL.com after Tuesday's loss. "We played a good brand of hockey. We are just struggling to score goals right now." And how. The Stars have only two goals during their three-game swoon and just eight total goals over the last six games. They've scored two goals or fewer in 11 of their last 14 contests. "We've just got to keep with it," Montgomery continued. "If we keep playing games we did (against Tampa Bay), the way we were skating, the way we were creating really good looks, we are going to end up on top of a lot of games." Forward Andrew Cogliano, acquired from Anaheim in a trade for Devin Shore on Monday, made his Stars debut against Tampa Bay. He skated on a line with Jason Spezza and Erik Condra (who was then sent down to Texas of the AHL on Wednesday). Cogliano had one shot attempt in 12:11 of ice time, and the Stars were a plus-six in shot attempts at full strength when Cogliano was on the ice. Los Angeles (18-25-4, 40 points) head to North Texas after a 3-2 shootout loss at Minnesota on Tuesday. The Kings have lost three of their last four contests, and never led in Tuesday's game. They tied the match twice on goals by Ilya Kovalchuk and Jeff Carter, the latter of which came with just 2:30 left in regulation. "We've got to be consistent, not just period to period, but shift to shift," Kings winger Dustin Brown told the Los Angeles Times after Tuesday's loss. "Right now, I think, for our team, I think we have two or three good shifts in a row. Part of it is inexperience and the little plays make a big difference, especially a team that plays a transition game like they do." Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick was more than up to the task in the loss, turning away 40 Minnesota shots and standing tall during a penalty in overtime. The Wild got the only goal in the shootout on Jason Zucker's perfect backhand. "We sure as hell got to be a lot more consistent than we've been, and we've got to figure that out," Los Angeles defenseman Alec Martinez told reporters Tuesday. "Quickie got us that point. Without him in the net, it could have been 8-1. He stood on his head, and he was the reason why we got the point." The Stars beat Los Angeles 4-2 in the two teams' first matchup of the season on Oct. 23 in Dallas. --Field Level Media |
