With a New Jersey Devils’ 2 – 1 win Saturday night against the Los Angeles Kings, you begin to wonder has there been a reversal of fortune? The Kings took the first three games and now the Devils have won the last two. Within those first three games the Devils would have told you that they’re playing well, just not getting the bounces. Now, the Kings feel the same way.
Tonight the two teams play game six of their series in Los Angeles at 8 PM EST. A do-or-die game for both teams. The Stanley Cup can be hoisted for the home crowd or perhaps delayed to find out a winner in a game seven, if needed, to be played Wednesday night. As neither team are my hometown team, for the sake of a suspenseful and good finish, it would be nice if a game seven is needed.
Do the Kings close it out or is it going to seven games?
