The Los Angeles Kings and the San Jose Sharks are both aiming to secure their second consecutive win in their latest NHL matchup at the Arena. The Kings are entering the game with a significant 6-game winning streak against the Sharks that dates back to March 17, 2022. This streak is tied for the second-longest active winning streak that the Kings hold against any single opponent, matching their 6-0-0 record against the Montreal Canadiens. A victory against the Sharks would bring the Kings one step closer to tying their longest active winning streak of 7-0-0, which is held against the Anaheim Ducks. The game, which is part of the ongoing rivalry known as the Battle of California, features the Kings hosting the Sharks, with goaltender David Rittich expected to be back in net for Los Angeles.
