The Ottawa Senators will attempt to win consecutive games for the first time since October when they invade the Crypto.com Arena to take on the Los Angeles Kings. Read on for our top Senators-Kings NHL picks.
Quite simply, Ottawa has been horrendous this season. Following a hot streak that saw them rack up four consecutive wins in late October, the Senators have completely cratered, posting a miserable 3-10-1 record since. On a positive note, they are heading into Sunday's matchup with the Kings hot on the heels of a 5-1 win over the fellow bo ttom-feeding Anaheim Ducks on Friday.
Although not off to nearly as tragic of a start as the Sens (not even close), Los Angeles is definitely a middle-of-the-road team that will likely be in a dogfight for a playoff spot until the end of the season. They too charge into this game fresh off a win over a lowly California-based team. Viktor Arvidsson notched a goal and an assist as the Kings topped the San Jose Sharks 5-2 on Friday.
Here are our Senators-Kings NHL picks for Sunday (odds via DraftKings Sportsbook, FanDuel Sportsbook, and Caesars Sportsbook; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).
