The Dallas Stars will continue their west coast road trip with a stop in LA Thursday night to play the Los Angeles Kings. This will be a test for the Dallas Stars since this is another back-to-back game situation for them. Here is how the Stars can storm the castle and raise their flag over LA.

Dallas Stars vs LA Kings 3. time for Otter to shine

More than likely since Holtby was in goal last night against the Golden Knights, Otter will start tonight. Oettinger will be fully rested and ready to go after having the last 4 games off. I expect Oettinger to add to his unbeaten record this season to 6-0-0 by the end of the game.

Dallas Stars vs LA Kings 2. Stars need to look alive tonight

I know Bowness isn’t going to have practice tomorrow but the Stars need to get all the sleep they can get tomorrow. The LA Kings will have a full three days of rest after being shut out by the Vancouver Canucks. If they look tired tonight against LA, it’s going to be a long game for them.

Dallas Stars vs LA Kings 1. Stars need a fast start

Stars need to have another one of those quick goals to wake up the team and get the early momentum. I hope we see the Star’s top line start against the Kings. I know the Kings are looking to set the momentum early due to the bad game they had Monday.

Kings to Watch

Adrian Kempe

Kempe is currently the leading goal scorer for the Los Angeles Kings. Miro needs to shut him down tonight in order for the Stars to win in LA. If he gets going on offense against Oettinger, the Stars could be in some trouble tonight against the Kings.
