Blackhawks open seven-game road trip vs. Kings

Feb 1, 2007 - 4:45 PM Chicago (18-25-7) at Los Angeles (17-30-6) 10:30 pm EST

LOS ANGELES (Ticker) - The Chicago Blackhawks hope a lengthy road trip will help them forget a dismal month.

After losing 10 of 12 games in January, the Blackhawks open a seven-game road trip Thursday with their first meeting of the season with the Los Angeles Kings.

Chicago opened and closed the month with victories sandwiched around 10 consecutive defeats. The Blackhawks hold a three-point lead over the Kings in the race to avoid the worst record in the Western Conference.

After being outscored, 43-20, during its longest drought of the season, Chicago posted a 4-2 overtime victory over Calgary on Sunday. Denis Arkhipov scored the tying goal in the final minute of regulation and netted the clincher in the extra session.

The Kings have dropped nine of their last 10 games and lead the West in losses (36), fewest wins (17), points (40), and goals allowed (192).

Los Angeles is coming off Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Calgary. Michael Cammalleri scored his 20th goal and Anze Kopitar collected his 32nd assist.

The Kings have won six of the last eight encounters against the Blackhawks, including both home matchups last season.
