News/Notes from Josh Cooper:

• The Kings are now officially over halfway through their seven-game road-trip and a lot of the good vibes from the start of the trip have gone away with three straight losses. The Kings currently have a 1-3-0 record on this trip, their only win coming in the first game at the Florida Panthers.
• The Sabres come in to Saturday’s game as a team playing well. Though Buffalo has the NHL’s second-worst record, the Sabres have gone 3-1-1 in their last five.
• The Kings have not won at the Sabres since Feb. 21, 2003. On that date Zigmund Palffy scored two goals and Jamie Storr made 31 saves as the Kings prevailed 4-1. Overall the Kings have lost eight straight games at Buffalo. The only player from that game still in the NHL is Anaheim Ducks goaltender Ryan Miller.

Not feeling this one. Losing streak going back 15 years+ the Sabres playing without their best player=Loss​

Evader Kane has 4 points in 2018. I expect him to match that today.

I love morning hockey!

With the current team, you can't even feel confident of a win playing the last place team in the league.

And yes, I realize that I am expecting more from Phaeunuf than I should.
