After a rough two-month stretch, Talbot has seemingly re-emerged as the go-to guy between the pipes for the Kings and will likely start for the third straight game.

The Kings enter action with even -105 odds at home in a divisional matchup against the Vancouver Canucks.

Seeler exited Monday's 2-1 loss to the St. Louis Blues in the third period after playing 16:57. Any significance to his injury could be a tough blow for the Flyers as he has been an integral part of their defensive core and has also been a name actively circulating through trade rumours.
