The Kings must travel to Montreal then Columbus after Thursday’s error-filled shutout defeat in Toronto.
Coming off perhaps their weakest effort of the season, the Kings will pivot directly into a back-to-back pair of road games that will pit them against the Montreal Canadiens and Columbus Blue Jackets this weekend.
Thursday’s follies were headlined by a variety pack of blunders in the second period. The three goals the Kings ceded in just 66 seconds were a power-play marker, a tally off an odd-man rush and then a breakaway finish. “I think the three goals in a minute and a half or whatever it was sums up the night. We were done after the first two, so it’s disappointing,” Coach Todd McLellan said.First up, they’ll face the Canadiens, whose attack has been led by its captain, center Nick Suzuki, and the pure goal-scoring touch of winger Cole Caufield.
His future remains in question while Jake Allen and Samuel Montembeault man the Montreal net, an issue exacerbated by defenseman Shea Weber’s situation. He has four years remaining on his $110 million contract, but his career effectively ended two seasons ago.
