Kings tonight
AT NEW YORK ISLANDERS
When: 4 PST.
Where: Nassau Coliseum.
On the air: TV: FS West; Radio: 1150.
Records: Kings 32-22-4, Islanders 21-30-7.
Record vs. Islanders: 1-0.
Update: The Kings, who have earned at least one point in 11 consecutive games (8-0-3), would set a club record if they get a point against New York. This is the Kings’ last “real” road game of 10 in a row away from home; the actual finale is Wednesday at Anaheim. They’re 5-0-3 on the trip so far. Defensemen Jack Johnson and Willie Mitchell did not practice Friday but are expected to play. Andrei Loktionov probably will be scratched, with Michal Handzus back at center with Kyle Clifford and Dustin Brown. Brad Richardson moved up to the first line with Anze Kopitar and Wayne Simmonds. The fourth line probably will be Alexei Ponikarovsky, Trevor Lewis and Kevin Westgarth. The Islanders were routed by Boston, 6-3, on Thursday, a loss that ended New York’s season-best four-game winning streak.
