Artemi Panarin helped set up three power-play goals the last time Los Angeles won. If you’re backing the Kings to end their three-game skid against Calgary, his two-point line fits a game where their best playmaker has a hand in several goals.
Matvei Gridin’s points under fits a different kind of Kings win. The Calgary winger has gone scoreless more often in losses, and his under puts the focus on how well Los Angeles limits chances off the rush.

Artemi Panarin to record two or more points
In the 7–2 win over San Jose, Panarin set up Adrian Kempe at even strength and had a hand in both Quinton Byfield power-play goals. Thursday’s loss to the Islanders offered another look at that unit with Kevin Fiala back. Both wingers assisted on Byfield’s goal, but that was Panarin’s only point.
Three of Panarin’s five winning games this season landed on exactly two points. He reached two in four of 12 Kings wins he played in after joining the team last season. I’d consider the plus price if you expect the Kings to get enough power-play time for Panarin to create a second scoring play.
Matvei Gridin under 0.5 points
Calgary put 27 shots on net at even strength in the loss to the Rangers and didn’t score on any of them. Gridin had three shots on goal and played more than 18 minutes, including power-play time, without a point. The under fits if Los Angeles can keep Gridin’s line from turning possession into clean looks in the slot.
One open-ice chance can be enough for him. In Sunday’s overtime win over Philadelphia, Gridin fed Matt Coronato on a 3-on-1 for the winner. If you expect the game to open up and Calgary to get those odd-man chances, that’s a reason to stick with the Kings’ offense for your prop.

Which prop fits a Kings win?
Panarin is where I’d start if you expect the Kings’ power play to drive the scoring. Gridin’s under fits a tighter game in which Los Angeles keeps Calgary from attacking with speed through the neutral zone.
