The analysis
Los Angeles have not won at home this season: 0 wins, 3 losses, 0 overtime losses (0-3-0). They host the Ottawa Senators Thursday, October 29, 2026, 10:00 p.m. ET, at Crypto.com Arena. It's an NHL regular season 2026-27 game, with the Kings on home ice.
The Kings sit at 3-6-2 through 11 games. They lost their last game in regulation. The Senators sit at 8-5-0 through 13 games. They also lost their last game in regulation.
Going into this game, the Kings are 7th in the Pacific Division and 14th in the Western Conference, with 8 points. The Senators come into the night 3rd in the Atlantic Division and 5th in the Eastern Conference, with 16 points.
Our feed has 2 meetings this season, in 2025-2026. The Kings won 1-0 on Saturday, November 15, 2025, and 2-1 on Monday, November 24, 2025. The market, read Thursday, October 29, 2026 at 8:50 a.m. ET, has the Senators as favourites at 1.91 (-110). The Kings sit at 2.00 (+100).
I like Ottawa's form and standing over Los Angeles right now. The Kings are at home, but they have not won there this season. I'll take the Ottawa Senators to win. My confidence is low, the read and the market point the same way, without a clean margin.
After the game

Los Angeles ran off 5 straight goals from the 1st period into the 2nd, from 15:09 to 15:43, building a 5 to 1 lead. Ottawa answered with 4 straight goals in the third, from 07:18 to 18:20, tying the game at 5, but Quinton Byfield settled it in overtime. The board finished Los Angeles Kings 6, Ottawa Senators 5, in overtime.
