Update:
This ends a home-and-home series between the teams, which the Kings opened with a 4-3 overtime victory Monday at Staples Center. In that game, the Kings extended their penalty killing streak to 29. Coach Terry Murray said he plans to start goaltender Jonathan Quick in this game — Quick’s 65th appearance this season — and again at St. Louis on Thursday, another snub for backup Erik Ersberg. Avalanche forward Darcy Tucker will be missing from this game after the NHL suspended him for one game, without pay, for making excessive physical contact on an icing play against the Kings’ Matt Greene in Monday’s game. Based on his average annual salary, Tucker will forfeit $11,658.03.
