AAA's SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION (RED HOT +$6,000 ALL NHL THIS SEASON!)
(NHL) Los Angeles vs. Colorado,
Money Line: -181.00 Los Angeles (Away)
Result: Win
This is a 7* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the LA Kings.

REASONING: No need to overanalyze this one too much as we look for the Kings to risk life and limb today in trying to break a three-game slide. The Avs are the league "doormat" and have dropped six of seven, including a deflating OT loss to Tampa at home this past Sunday (we had the Bolts in that one fortunately). The Kings have looked good despite the mini losing streak, as they actually outshot the Coyotes 44 to 22, while in their last outing they outshot the Panthers 35 to 25. And if recent history is any precedence, then the Kings have to be loving their chances for a turnaround today, because when these team's met on February 6th, goaltender Peter Budaj delivered the shutout in the 5-0 rout: "We're still fully confident we can turn it on now and get back into that playoff spot we want to be in," LA defenseman Drew Doughty commented. "The longer we wait, the harder it's going to be." Colorado was boosted with the return of top defenseman Erik Johnson to practice this week, only to then once again be letdown when fellow d-man Nikita Zadorov suffered a season ending ankle injury in practice on Monday. Note that LA is 4-1 in its last five after allowing two goals or fewer, while Colorado is just 18-37 in its last 55 at home. In the 5-0 loss to LA earlier in the month, Colorado was outshot 40-22 and failed to capitalize on four extra man chances. And now with Zadorov on the IL, things won't get any easier tonight. We're laying the price with confidence, play on the KINGS.
