This Friday night, perhaps the biggest game of the week is set as the Los Angeles Kings score on the road to take on the Colorado Avalanche. For the Kings to survive a high-scoring affair against the top-scoring offensive league in the Avalanche (3.81), Los Angeles when needs a reliable set of impact players on the offensive side of the ice.
Los Angeles has won two of the last 12 games in January. For the Kings to have a chance in a potentially high-scoring game, they will need players like center Anze Kopitar to re-establish their rhythm on the ice.
In the last 12 games, Kopitar has accounted for a goal or an assist in five of those games. The Kings have only won two of the last 12 games as a result of the lack of productivity from Kopitar. For the Kings to get out of this slump and start playing like a Stanley Cup Finals contender again, players like Kopitar have to step up.

The final game of the night will be a matchup between two Western Conference teams that have revitalized their season and create the St. Louis Blues go on the road to take on the Seattle Kraken in a much-needed game between playoff contenders.
The defense of the Kraken has become more efficient as they have started winning more games the Blues, on the other hand, have been in around the middle pack defensively in the league. St. Louis’ defense has allowed an average of 2.81 points allowed per game.
This game is a great chance for the Kraken to make a statement against a surging Blues team. Forward Jared McCann is a player who has made a critical impact for the Kraken in January with ten total points, all of them within six of the last games. McCann is a player who has helped the rise after a horrible start to the season. The Kraken will look to him to continue that trend.
