The Kings this season are known to play like utter crap against teams who are heavily injured (see the three times the Blues beat us), so hopefully they play to their best tomorrow.
We need to attack hard and give them no easy goals.
If anyone has Pittsburgh's lineup, I'll add it to the OP. I have no idea what they'll be fielding as they lost Cooke, Kunitz, and most of their top players.
Need to take advantage of this one, I expect them to play hard after the break.

If we could get a win here, I would be okay if we only got a point or two between Washington/Philadelphia.
Washington/Philadelphia will be BY FAR the hardest back-to-back we will have all season. Both on the road. Both against Top 5 teams in the league. BOTH IN THE DAY TIME.
So excited to finally watch a game again. Kings will come out strong. I expect a pretty high-scoring affair. 5-3 Kings.
If we give up 3 to the current Penguins line-up, I'm pretty sure the board will meltdown.
I expect a 2-1 game. Murray is going to play conservative if it's a tie game or if we're up 1 sometime in the second half of the game. He will try to get a point, go into OT, and hope Quick wins another SO.
we really really shouldnt go to a shootout, they are so ravaged by injuries, that our 4th line would pretty much be their top line
Remember when the Kings destroyed the red hot Red Wings 5-0 and then went to St. Louis where they were missing their top five forwards, their best defenseman, and starting goalie.
And we lost like 6-4.
Kings SHOULD win, but who knows. Kings are a weird team.
Tyler Kennedy is now our best winger with 10 goals.... We need a miracle
I knew about all those injuries (lmao Cooke is sitting in timeout), but Kunitz won't be dressed tonight? I know he suffered a lower body injury vs the Ducks but he's for sure not playing vs the Kings? Damn, we've got to take advantage of this lineup

Him and cooke will be out the next 3-4 games. Pens have a game tonight, tomorrow and sunday and Kunitz will miss them all.
This is a hard game for me. I'm a Kings fan first, Pens fan second. It helps that pretty much half of the Pens are out of the lineup though. I hope we give them a smackdown (but hope it's Johnson in net, as Fleury is my favorite player not on the Kings. Unfortunately, it will be Flower).
