2018-19 Regular Season Game 4 LA Kings Vs Montreal Canadiens

Good evening Kings fans! Tonight your LA Kings play their second game of the four game Canadian road trip as the head to Montreal, Quebec to take on the Montreal Canadiens. Tonight’s game is being played at the Bell Centre. The Kings have been playing well despite only winning one game so far, forward Austin Wagner has given the team some speed and pickup for the offense and has helped set up plays that have contributed to good offensive opportunities. The Kings young talent of Austin Wagner and Jaret Anderson-Dolan has helped with the Kings getting more speed into their lineup. Here’s what head coach John Stevens said about forward Jaret Anderson-Dolan

“I don’t think he gets intimidated by the moment. I think he’s a hockey player, and he looks like he gets more excited than he does nervous, and I think he’s excited about playing tonight,” “He’s a lot like Iafallo, to be honest with you. He’s got really good detail in his game, speed and quickness, he sees the ice really well. We just want to see him be a really consistent player out there that doesn’t have any peaks and valleys in his game. A little bit careful with him early, just because it’s a big step for him to take, but we’ve been really happy with his (training camp), and we certainly think he can help us. That’s why he’s here.”
