Kings Notes:

  • With his third period goal Saturday evening against Ottawa, Anze Kopitar (21) became the fifth Kings player with more than 20 career third-period, go-ahead goals, joining Marcel Dionne (33), Luc Robitaille (32), Dave Taylor (24) and Dustin Brown (24).
  • The Kings’ 2.68 goals-against-per game played (GA/GP) places fifth in the league.
  • Forward Adrian Kempe has three goals in his three most recent appearances at Crypto.com Arena.
  • Among skaters logging at least 20:00 of time-on-ice per game played, only six players in the NHL have accrued a higher plus/minus rating than defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov (+12) has, and no skaters have done so while playing as many minutes.

Stars Notes:

  • The Stars have had loads of success against the Kings in the recent past. Going back to the team's last 18 meetings, the Stars are 14-4-0 and have won the last four games. Across those last four games, the Stars have outscored the Kings 17-3.
  • The Stars enter Wednesday's tilt on a three-game winning streak with notable wins over the Colorado Avalanche, Winnipeg Jets and Utah HC.
  • The Stars are 6-6-0 on the road this season and have both scored and given up 37 goals each.

Players to Watch:

Kings: Quinton Byfield (31-68=99), who looks to become the seventh skater from the 2020 NHL Draft to record 100 points.

Stars: 17-year NHL veteran Matt Duchene, who leads the Stars in scoring with 28 (12-16=28).
