Philadelphia (21-10-7) at Los Angeles (15-16-6), 10:30 pm EST
LOS ANGELES (Ticker) -- After a rough start, the Philadelphia
Flyers have turned around their season-long, six-game road
swing.
The Flyers aim for their third straight win Saturday when they
visit the Los Angeles Kings, who are coming off a four-day
break.
After dropping its first two contests on the trip by a combined
score of 8-1, Philadelphia has rebounded with a pair of one-goal
triumphs on the West Coast.
Mike Richards scored the lone goal in the shootout after
collecting three assists in regulation, lifting the Flyers to a
5-4 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Friday.
Philadelphia, which is tied with the New York Rangers atop the
Atlantic Division standings, ends its road trip Tuesday against
the Washington Capitals.
Kings rookie netminder Jonathan Quick is coming off another
impressive performance, but the club lost to the Columbus Blue
Jackets, 2-0, on Monday.
The 22-year-old is 2-3-0 with a 1.72 goals-against average and
.937 save percentage. Los Angeles' offense, however, has
provided little help as both of Quick's victories have come via
shutout.
