The Los Angeles Kings look to extend their road winning streak to 10 on Tuesday against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
This is the first of four road games in six days for the Kings.
Despite practicing in a regular jersey Tuesday, Blake Lizotte will be out on Tuesday.
With Lizotte still out, I wouldn't expect any changes in the Kings' lines.
The Kings are coming off a big 4-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche, led by a two goal performance from Quinton Byfield.
The Blue Jackets have lost three straight and are struggling this season, sitting bottom of the Metropolitan division.
This will also be the first time back in Columbus for Vladislav Gavrikov.
I'd also expect a fair amount of boo's for Pierre-Luc Dubois, despite him being two teams removed.
