LA Kings

Los Angeles, apparently, will still play in the upcoming Stanley Cup. Not long ago, there were big problems, although the Kings spent the first half of the regular season at a very high level and were in the group of leaders of the entire league. Then they began to produce too many bad games, because of which Todd McLellan was resigned and Jim Hiller became the new head coach. He too did not immediately manage to get progress from the players, but then they gave out a 4-match winning streak, then lost three times, and now beat Seattle and San Jose - 5:2 and 2:1, respectively. The Californians now sit eighth in the Western Conference standings.

VAN Canucks

The current regular season turned out to be a breakthrough for Vancouver. If a year earlier the Canucks didn't make the playoffs at all, now they will definitely play in the cup battles, and they will get a high seeding, and they still have arithmetic chances for the President's Cup. They have been performing consistently well throughout the current season, but at the turn of March and April they stalled a bit. In the last five games, the Blue-Greens have beaten only Anaheim and Arizona - 3:2 and 2:1, respectively, while losing to Los Angeles - 2:3, Dallas - 1:2, and Vegas - 3:6. They are in second place in the Western Conference standings, three points behind the leader.

Expert Betting Tips

Los Angeles continues to fight for the playoffs, but the probability of the Kings' ultimate success is very high. They currently sit eighth in the Western Conference, seven points ahead of their nearest pursuer. To lose such an advantage in the remaining six matches is possible, but it is unlikely that they would like to have unnecessary nervousness. For this reason, the Californians should approach the battle with Vancouver, whom they have beaten in four of the last five head-to-head meetings. Moreover, the Black and Whites have won their last six home games, so now it's a good bet on Los Angeles to win.
