Forecast comes from preseason team ratings and is replaced by the model read as the game gets close. Rest is full days off since the team’s last game; B2B is the second night of a back-to-back.

Scouting Take
The Los Angeles Kings profile as struggling on both ends of the ice. Heavy OT dependency. The standings may be flattering them. Losing more than they're winning lately. Concerning trajectory.
Every metric ranked vs. the league, sorted best to worst. Long bar = advantage.
Key Takeaway
Blocks (90th) stands out as above-average. Exposed in defense (29th) and offense (23th) and goal diff (23th) and form (l10) (23th) and point % (13th) and reg wins (13th) and home (3th). Opponents will target these areas.

13 games. Corsi (CF%) and Fenwick (FF%) are shot-attempt shares; xGF% weights those attempts by chance quality. PDO is shooting plus save percentage × 10. It regresses hard toward 100, so a team far from it is usually running hot or cold rather than good or bad. Percentages are coloured against break-even at even strength only; special teams are lopsided by definition. These are raw, unadjusted totals: no score, venue or schedule adjustment.
