The Los Angeles Kings are a surprising 22-11-3 this season including 12-7-1 on the road, and they now have a chance to exorcise some demons when the visit the Calgary Flames in a building where they have not had any success.

Yes, the Flames ate 11-1-1 in the last 13 head-to-head meetings at the Saddledome, but then again, the talent level between these two teams has never been this close either. Also, not only have the Kings played well on the road, but the Flames have not been as dominant at home as usual, sitting at 8-5-1.

The Kings currently sit atop the Western Conference with 47 points, two points ahead of the Chicago Blackhawks, and they enter this contest on a nice 8-1-1 run. Also, they did beat the Flames 2-1 the last time these teams met back in LA earlier this month, as Jonathan Quick stopped 26 of 27 shots. Quick has been a major reason for the Kings success, as he has already won 20 games thanks to a 2.60 GAA and .904 save percentage with three shutouts.

While the Kings have remained hot, the Flames are struggling, going 1-4 in their last five games including three straight losses. The biggest problem has been a lack of production from leader Jarome Iginla, who is currently on a season high seven-game scoring drought and who has just two goals in the last 12 games.

As Iginla goes so go the Flames, and the Kings are simply the better hockey team at the current time, giving then sick value at this reputation-based price.
