Regional Blackouts Explained for NHL Fans
If you’ve ever tried to tune into an NHL game only to be hit with a viewing restriction, you’ve experienced a regional blackout. These happen because local regional sports networks buy the exclusive broadcast rights for teams within a specific geographic territory. When a game airs locally, out-of-market streaming services like ESPN+ will block the feed to protect the local network’s TV ratings. However, since this Vegas Golden Knights vs. Los Angeles Kings matchup is an exclusive national TNT broadcast in the US, regional blackouts typically will not apply—meaning everyone nationwide should be able to easily enjoy the game!
Vegas Golden Knights and Los Angeles Kings Season Preview & Stats
Heading into this matchup, the Vegas Golden Knights currently sit atop the Pacific Division with a stellar 27-16-14 record (68 points). Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Kings are fighting hard for positioning with a 23-19-14 record (60 points). In their last game against one another right before the Olympic break earlier this month, Vegas secured a commanding 4-1 victory over LA.
Offensively, the Golden Knights are led by superstars Jack Eichel (21 goals, 47 assists, 68 points), Mark Stone (60 points), and Mitch Marner (58 points). For the Kings, Adrian Kempe paces the team with 20 goals and 46 points, followed closely by Kevin Fiala (40 points) and Quinton Byfield (30 points).
Injuries will play a major role in tomorrow’s clash. The Kings suffered a devastating blow during the Winter Olympics, as Kevin Fiala sustained a lower-leg fracture and is out for the remainder of the season. LA is hoping newly acquired star Artemi Panarin can quickly gel with the team to replace that lost offense. On the other side, Vegas is still missing William Karlsson and Brett Howden, though they are expected to get defensive stalwart Brayden McNabb back in the lineup.
Now, let’s talk betting odds. The oddsmakers have the Los Angeles Kings as slight home favorites at -118 on the moneyline, with the Over/Under set at 5.5 goals. Personally, I am leaning heavily toward the Golden Knights as the outright winner. In my experience covering this Pacific Division rivalry, Vegas just has too much elite offensive firepower for a Kings team reeling from the emotional and physical loss of Fiala.
My prediction? I think Vegas wins outright on the road, taking this game 4-2, and pushing the total over the 5.5 mark with a late empty-netter. I just don’t see LA’s defense containing Eichel, Stone, and Marner for a full 60 minutes.
