Kuemper to Start Wednesday vs. Kraken, Seeks Improved Performance

Darcy Kuemper is set to start in goal for the Los Angeles Kings at home against the Seattle Kraken on Wednesday. While he has secured two wins in his last three starts, the 35-year-old netminder has allowed nine goals on 81 shots during that stretch. He might benefit from facing a Kraken team playing the second half of a back-to-back, following their 4-2 loss to the Ducks on Tuesday, potentially offering an opportunity for a stronger outing.
