Blackhawks game day
Los Angeles Kings at the Staples Center, 7 p.m.
TV: Comcast SportsNet
Radio: WGN 720-AM
What to watch: This game will mark the Kings debut of Jeff Carter, who was acquired from Columbus on Thursday in exchange for defenseman Jack Johnson and a conditional first-round draft pick. He had 15 goals and 10 assists in 39 games with the Blue Jackets. That’s just what the doctor ordered for L.A., which ranks last in the NHL in goals. The Kings have lost four straight, scoring 1 goal or fewer five times during a 1-4-2 stretch.
Season series: Tied at 1-1, with each team winning on the road.
Next: Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center, 6 p.m. Sunday
