The Montreal Canadiens continued their annual California road trip on Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Kings on the heels of a loss against the San Jose Sharks the night before.
The Kings have been off since beating the Islanders in Los Angeles on Sunday, and looking to pounce on a team that may be gripping their sticks too hard and skating on tired legs.
Interestingly enough, as the Montreal Canadiens were off to one of their worst starts in franchise history, the Kings were actually off to the best start in franchise history.
