After Darcy Kuemper shut out the Predators on Monday, the Kings will turn to Rittich in goal for the tail-end of their back-to-back on Tuesday. Rittich took a disappointing loss his last time out, allowing three goals on 20 shots in a 4-2 defeat against the Sharks on October 29th. The 32-year-old netminder owns an .870 SV% and a 3-3-0 record across six appearances this season. He will have his hands full again on Tuesday with the Kings entering action as +180 underdogs in Minnesota.

Turcotte suffered an undisclosed injury during Monday's game in Nashville and the Kings would not provide any further detail. Turcotte has one goal and four assists in 13 this season.

Kuemper allowed a final-minute game-tying goal in the third period in his previous outing, an eventual 4-3 shootout loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. That said, he will return to the crease on Monday night against the Nashville Predators. Despite a disastrous performance when he allowed eight goals on 41 shots (.805 SV%) in an 8-7 loss to the Ottawa Senators, Kuemper has been serviceable between the pipes in his first season as a King, allowing three or fewer goals in five of six games, recording a .890 SV%. The Kings enter the action on Monday as +126 road underdogs against a Predators club with points in five of their last six (4-1-1).

Burroughs has only played one of the last eight games for the Kings but will re-enter the lineup on Monday against the Nashville Predators. The 29-year-old Burroughs is averaging 14:29 time-on-ice and has one point (0G / 1A), four blocks, and 10 hits in five games this season.

Kuemper allowed a final-minute game-tying goal in the third period in his previous outing, an eventual 4-3 shootout loss to the Chicago Blackhawks.

Jones will be the odd-man out on the Kings' blue line on Wednesday as they opt to get some fresh bodies into the lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Andreas Englund will draw into the lineup in Jones' place.

Lee will make way for Kevin Fiala, who re-enters the lineup after being scratched for Tuesday's game for missing a team meeting. Lee has no goals and one assist in ten games this season.

On the tail end of a back-to-back, after a disappointing 4-2 loss to the San Jose Sharks last night, the Kings will switch to Kuemper between the pipes. Kuemper returned to the lineup from a lower-body injury on Saturday and helped lead the Kings to a 3-2 victory over the Utah Hockey Club, saving 24 of 26 shots (.923 SV%). Aside from a disastrous outing where he allowed eight goals on 41 shots (.805 SV%) in an 8-7 loss to the Ottawa Senators, Kuemper has been solid, allowing two or fewer goals in three of four outings (2-1-1). That said, the Kings enter the action on Wednesday as +113 home underdogs against a Vegas Golden Knights club that leads the league offensively with 47 goals.

Englund will re-enter the lineup as the Kings opt to get some fresh bodies in for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Englund has one goal and no assists in four games this season.

Things go from bad to worse for the Kings star. After being benched in Saturday's game vs. Utah, Fiala missed a team meeting and will be a healthy scratch Tuesday vs. the Sharks. Akil Thomas will make his season debut in Fiala's spot and it's unclear if he'll re-join the lineup for the second-half of the Kings' back-to-back on Wednesday.

On the opening night of a back-to-back, the Kings will turn to Rittich between the pipes.
