The 2019-20 National Hockey League (NHL) season continues tonight with the Tampa Bay Lightning at Los Angeles Kings for an interconference clash. These two teams are having very different seasons with the Lightning currently 2nd in the Atlantic Division in the Eastern Conference and the Kings 8th in the Pacific Division in the Western Conference. The Tampa comes into the game after an unfortunate loss against the Dallas Stars on the road. They have a bit of a back-and-forth record while traveling, so maybe this will be a comeback evening.

The Los Angeles Kings come into the game on a four-game losing streak. This will be their first game at home after a five-game away streak, which included an overtime loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. We would say it seems like the prime time for the Kings to get a win, but their record has been less than stellar as of late. So, will the Kings continue to disappoint, or will they upset one of the teams predicted to be going for a good Stanley Cup run this season?
