KINGS TONIGHT

vs. Minnesota, 7:30, FSN West

Radio -- 1150.

Site -- Staples Center

Records -- Kings 12-18-2, Wild 17-12-2.

Record vs. Wild -- 1-0.

Update -- The Wild had to deal with an assortment of issues this week before defeating the Ducks on Friday night. Flu hit several players hard, and Minnesota had lost three of its last four games, hindered by a serious lack of scoring punch. The Kings, who have won three of their last 11, continue to wait for the return of No. 1 goalie Jason LaBarbera (rib injury) and forward Alexander Frolov (groin). The Kings, who lost, 4-1, to Dallas on Thursday, did not practice Friday.
