Kings to start Enroth in goal against Islanders

Goalie Jonathan Quick is day-to-day after colliding with Boston Bruins forward Jimmy Hayes on Tuesday. 

"Just take it day-to-day. I know he wants to play, but I think I'll have to handle that one," Kings coach Darryl Sutter told L.A. Kings Insider. "He finished the game [Tuesday]. He wants to play. Anything more is nobody's business, including [the Islanders']. 

Goalie Peter Budaj was recalled from Ontario of the American Hockey League. The Kings are also likely to insert defenseman Kevin Gravel into the lineup in place of defenseman Christian Ehrhoff who cleared waivers and was sent to Ontario on Thursday 

The Kings are coming off a 9-2 win against the Bruins and continue a seven-game road trip. They have scored 15 goals in their past two road games. 

"It's always good to score. I mean, we've scored a lot of goals, other than one game the last 10 games. Our goals-for hasn't been a problem at all. It's not an issue," Sutter said. 

The Islanders have won two straight and look for their first three-game winning streak since Dec. 8-13. 

"It's a perfect time to play these guys because you are going to learn a lot about your hockey club," coach Jack Capuano told the Islanders website. "This is a team that puts up a ton of shots and they retrieve pucks well, so how we defend will be an integral part of this game tonight." 

Capuano also discussed the Kings' additions of Vincent Lecavalier and Milan Lucic, and what they add to the team. 

"I've always liked [Lecavalier], even when he played us in Philadelphia," he said. "He's on one of those flanks on the halfwall and when he shoots it, it looks like it's going to go through the boards. He's got a heavy shot. Getting [Marian] Gaborik a few years ago and all of a sudden getting Lecavalier, they've got a good veteran lineup, and Lucic in the summertime. This is a really good test for our team." 

Here are the projected lineups:
