Thompson will protect the road goal against the Kings on Saturday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Adin Hill took an overtime loss versus the Blackhawks on Friday, so it's not surprising that Thompson will get the second half of a back-to-back. The 26-year-old Thompson has allowed six goals on 90 shots for a .933 save percentage over three games this season. The Kings earned a 5-4 comeback win over the Coyotes on Friday thanks to a deep offense that can score in bunches.
