VS. NASHVILLE

Records: Kings 29-29-10; Predators 34-30-5.

Record vs. Predators: 0-2.

Update: After managing one point on their trip to Vancouver and San Jose, the Kings are entering must-win territory. They are five points out of the final playoff berth with 14 to play, and must pass five teams -- one of them Nashville -- to get there. Nashville has scored two goals or less in 16 of their last 17 games. Nashville’s Jason Arnott, who has a team-high 27 goals, is questionable after missing the last two games with an upper-body injury.
