We got on the New Jersey bus back in Game 4, and it served us well, but we think that the time is here to hop off of that bus and back on with the Kings. Sure, there has to be a level of complacency out of the Kings at this point, knowing that this is the first time that they have ultimately been in the midst of a close series that has gone deep in, and Jonathan Quick is due to come up with one of those games that just makes you go, “Wow!” The net minder is clearly better at this point than Martin Brodeur is, and we really feel as though we have seen the best that New Jersey has to offer. When LA was at its best, we saw it pummel the Devils 4-0. When New Jersey was at its best, it was just barely living to tell about games. That’s just not good enough for us. It will be a fitting ending to the season on Monday night, where the Kings should hoist Lord Stanley’s Cup for the very first time.

The Kings are a team that is 10-0 on the road this year in the playoffs. It is clearly the most remarkable run that we have ever see a team go on in the postseason, and that really goes without any shred of an argument. Many are thinking that the Devils can once again make this a series, and yes, if they play as well as they did at times in Game 3, especially in that third period, they are indeed going to end up forcing this series back to Tinseltown. That being said, we have seen this out of the Kings before. They won the first three games of all of the series that they played in these playoffs, yet they went just 1-3 in the Game 5s in those series. After all of the teams won Game 4 on the road, the NHL experts out there figured that the series was all of a sudden back in the balance. Not so much. Los Angeles has finished off every single series on the road in Game 5. This should be no exception. Back the Kings to lift Lord Stanley’s Cup for the first time on enemy ice in the Garden State on Saturday night.

We really have to go with our guts in this one. The Kings are clearly the better of these two teams, but we just don’t know if the Devils are going to give up on this series at this point. Martin Brodeur is a man that has a ton of pride, and he isn’t going to want to get swept out of the postseason in what might be his last shot at another Stanley Cup. Jonathan Quick has been out of this world, but there is a point that he just has to give up some goals. If Ilya Kovalchuk and his line mates can finally get something going, perhaps by breaking this lousy 0-for-12 streak on the power play for the series, maybe the Devils can swipe a game. We suggest waiting as long as you can to see how far LA backers will push this spread. We have already seen the price go from -160 to -200 on the Kings, and if it gets much further than that, it is just going to be impossible for us to avoid at least taking a shot on the visitors to send this series back to the Garden State.

The poor Devils just don’t have it in them from the looks of it. They have been good enough to win both of the first two games of this series, but the truth of the matter is that they really haven’t looked like the team that should have won either game. The stars for the Kings are really shining right now, just as they have through the entire postseason. Jonathan Quick has allowed just two goals on 50 shots faced, and Jeff Carter and Anze Kopitar both have overtime winning goals. Drew Doughty has been all over the ice as well, and he is proving that he is one of the best defensemen that the league has to offer. In the end, we just don’t know if Martin Brodeur has this one in him or not. New Jersey has played just about as well as we think that it has the ability to play against LA, and now that it is on the road, we just don’t see it happening. The Kings are going to win the Stanley Cup and win it quite soon, perhaps even before going back to the Prudential Center.

The Los Angeles Kings have now strung together a record nine straight wins on the road in the playoffs in NHL betting action. Our Stanley Cup picks continue on Saturday night with what should be another great clash in this series when LA faces off against the New Jersey Devils in Game 2!

Is there any team out there that can stop the Kings right now? It is truly remarkable what they have continued to do now that they have nine straight wins on the road in the playoffs against some of the best teams in the league. That being said, Game 1 was really the first time that there was a level of adversity that was clearly faced. New Jersey might have been the better team in the game for a few stretches of the night, and it showed. In fact, without a real moment of brilliance when Drew Doughty started a break that ended with Anze Kopitar beating Martin Brodeur in OT, who knows whether this series would be 1-0 in favor of the Kings or the Devils. We backed New Jersey the first time around, and we are going to do so again in Game 2. Remember that the New York Rangers shut out the Devils at Madison Square Garden in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, and we really don’t see why this can’t happen again. The magical streak of perfection on the road is going to come to a close for the Kings on Saturday night.

History would tell you that the Kings could be running into some problems here, especially with all of the time off that they just had to get ready for this game. LA has been one of the hottest teams that we have ever seen here in the NHL playoffs, winning 12 of the 14 games that it has been called upon to play thus far. Jonathan Quick has been a beast in the pipes, and the rest of the offense is picking it up as well. New Jersey has won three straight coming into this game, and for our money, it has played a heck of a lot more impressive hockey in tight spots than have the Kings. The Devils are clearly overmatched in terms of talent in net with Martin Brodeur, but we have to remember that the 40-year old has been here before, though the most recent time was a decade ago. In the end, we think that Zach Parise and the gang are going to be out for blood right at the outset of this series, and we think that the Devils are going to be able to draw first blood when push comes to shove.
