My Kings are 0-3-0 at home, and Ottawa is without Ullmark
My Kings have not won at Crypto.com Arena yet, 0-3-0, and their penalty kill sits last in the NHL at 63.3%. Ottawa is 8-4-0, but Linus Ullmark (.945) went on injured reserve on Oct. 22 and was expected to miss one to two weeks. Kalshi has the Senators at 53 cents and the Kings at 49.

Regis sits this one out, and here is his read
The matchup to watch is the Kings' kill against a power play that has struggled just as much: Ottawa converts 11.5%, 29th. The Kings' own power play, 16.7% and 25th, meets a Senators kill at 79.1%, 17th. Both clubs play on Tuesday, the Kings in Chicago and Ottawa in Vegas, and those games are not in the numbers here because I read the stats early Tuesday morning.
I'm not posting a ticket on this game. I read Kalshi's full board Thursday morning and kept tonight's real money to the games where my two legs looked strongest; this one finished just outside that group, so this page is your scouting report instead. I'll keep watching the goalie news with you before the 7 PM PT puck drop.
- Artemi Panarin leads my Kings with 7 goals and 11 points after 84 points last season.
- Adrian Kempe has 35 shots, and Brandt Clarke has 8 points from the blue line.
- Tim Stützle has 8 goals and 8 assists. Drake Batherson had a hat trick against the Rangers on Saturday and has 7 goals.
- The Kings placed Mats Zuccarello on injured reserve (upper body) on Monday, and Quinton Byfield returned to the lineup in New York. Ottawa's Thomas Chabot (upper body) practiced fully on Monday and is nearing a return.
- Four of the Kings' 10 games and five of Ottawa's 12 have had six or more goals.
