The Slapshot – Dec 19th

Big Tuesday NHL slate today with the Wild being the only team on a back to back tonight.

LA KINGS

Danault, Fiala, Moore

The Kings are a dominating 12-1-1 away from home so far this season and really look like a team who just needs to add one or two pieces to be a dangerous spot all season long. They should be able to wear down the Sharks and find a way to get Kevin Fiala a goal or two tonight.

OILERS – ISLES

Horvat, Barzal, Lee

Draisaitl, Nugent-Hopkins

Smells like a high scoring night and one of the games that could produce a 5-4 final is this one. Draisaitl is going to net two tonight but the Isles are the easier full stack team.

SENATORS

Tkachuk, Chychrun

Ottawa on the other hand, is not doing so well. But for those who like the revenge narrative you can feast upon Jakob Chychrun returning to the Mullet Arena tonight, but we’ll see if he can make sure to walk down the correct tunnel tonight.
