BLUES AT KINGS

WHAT TO WATCH

Vladimir Tarasenko will return to the lineup Saturday
after being activated from injured reserve. Tarasenko will play his first regular-season game since Oct. 24, 2019.
The Blues are 10-2-0 on the road this season and are a perfect 4-0 on their current six-game West Coast road trip. St. Louis became the first team to reach 10 road wins this season, and did it in the fewest games in history to record 10 wins. The previous team record was 10 road wins in 15 games, which was achieved in three seasons.
Oskar Sundqvist did not play in the third period on Friday. He left for the locker room late in the second period. Blues Head Coach Craig Berube didn't have an update after the game but was hopeful Sundqvist can play Saturday.

THE SERIES SO FAR

Jan. 24: Kings 6, Blues 3
Anze Kopitar had a goal and two assists in a 6-3 win for the Kings at Enterprise Center. It was the Kings first road win of the season. Brayden Schenn scored two goals, Jordan Kyrou had two assists and Ville Husso made 29 saves in his first NHL start.

Jonathan Quick made 31 saves to record his second shutout in three starts in a 3-0 win against the Blues at Enterprise Center. The victory was Los Angeles' fifth straight. The Blues fell to 1-4-1 in their last six home games and were shutout for the third time this season.

The win was LA's sixth straight, tying them with the Tampa Bay Lightning for the longest win streak of the season at the time.
March 5: Blues 3, Kings 2 (OT)
David Perron scored two goals, including the game-tying goal with 44 seconds left in the third period with the goalie pulled, and Mike Hoffman buried the game winner just 90 seconds into overtime to lift the Blues to a dramatic 3-2 win. Ville Husso made 28 saves in helping the Blues to their fourth consecutive win.
