The Utah Hockey Club have had some decent results this season, but they’ve also been held to 1 or fewer goals in 3 of their last 5 games. Utah needs to find a spark offensively, and it’s not going to be easy to flip that switch on the road. The Los Angeles Kings have put together their best week of the season, and you expect things to settle down on their home ice. The Kings have played 8 of their last 9 games on the road, dating back to last season. LA has to be thrilled to finally see their team. Give me the Kings and the reasonable price.
