Going from one rival to another, the Kings try to shake Thursday’s loss at Edmonton, which snapped their four-game winning streak, and focus on the Flames.
The Kings’ Blake Lizotte crashes into Edmonton goalie Stuart Skinner during the first period Thursday, March 28, 2024, in Edmonton, Alberta. While the field of eight playoff teams in the Western Conference feels all but set, the Kings will need to scrape and claw for seeding in their final 10 games, beginning with a rodeo in Calgary against the rival Flames on Saturday.
While the 1-3-1 is roughly a century-old defensive system employed to varying degrees by several NHL teams, there exist questions about the Kings’ formula and its adaptability across situations. While they’ve been superb protecting leads – they’re 29-0-3 with a second-intermission advantage – the Kings have relied heavily on getting the game’s initial goal.
“It doesn’t change our game at all,” Kings forward Quinton Byfield said of the game’s first goal. “We know what we have in this room and what it takes to win. We’ve got a strategy, we’re going to keep doing it, keep grinding other teams out, and that works for us.”
