Kuemper Poised for Tuesday Start Against Capitals

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Darcy Kuemper is expected to get the starting nod at home versus the Capitals on Tuesday. He has been strong recently, remaining undefeated in regulation over his last three outings, where he posted a 1-0-2 record, a 2.25 GAA, and a .918 save percentage. The veteran backstop is also on pace to reach the 50-game mark this season, which would set him up to achieve the 20-win threshold for the fourth time in the last five years of his career.
