#LAKings Projected Lineup: LA Kings vs. Ottawa Senators in Game 20 (MayorsManor)

A 4pm start at home on a Saturday? Sure, why not.
While the Kings have historically not been a very good team in matinee games at the Staples Center, early on this season they’ve actually found some success. That notion will be put to the test today, though, as the game is really neither a day game or a typical night game. It’s more of a tweener.
With Andreas Athanasiou still in protocol and coming off of a lopsided loss to Toronto on Wednesday, coach Todd McLellan is searching for a lineup to be thankful for right now.
After giving Viktor Arvidsson a long look with Anze Kopitar on the top line, he finally seems to be willing to try something different. Based on Friday’s practice combos, today’s lineup will likely look like…
LA KINGS PROJECTED LINEUP vs. OTTAWA SENATORS on 11/27

Kempe – Kopitar – Brown
Iafallo – Danault – Arvidsson
Moore – Andersson – Grundstrom
Lemieux – Lizotte – Kaliyev / Kupari

Earlier today, we did a deep dive on Doughty, Byfield, Arvidsson, Quick, and others on NHL Radio…
On the Senators side of things:
Ottawa fell to the Ducks 4-0 in Anaheim on Friday using this lineup:
KINGS MILESTONES WITHIN REACH

Alex Edler – one goal away from career number 100
Anze Kopitar – needs 52 points to pass Dave Taylor for third on the Kings all-time scoring list
Dustin Brown is 10 goals away from passing Bernie Nicholls for fifth place in Kings franchise history
Puck drop is scheduled for 4:00 pm PST tonight and the game will be on Bally Sports Network
