Wednesday will be the second of a back-to-back for the Kings off facing Colorado in L.A.'s home opener on Tuesday. Which means backup Anton Forsberg in net Wednesday in the Vegas home opener. Decent goalie but there's a reason the 32-year-old has bounced around, and this will be his Kings debut. Also the Golden Knights debut of the biggest free-agent signing of the offseason in former Maple Leafs All-Star Mitch Marner. I might like Vegas to win the West for the first time since 2023. No. 1 netminder Adin Hill was 20-6-2 at home last year with a 2.40 GAA and three shutouts. Los Angeles was almost unbeatable on home ice in 2024-25 but two games under .500 away.
