EDGE Analysis
Special teams were the difference in this one -- Copley didn't let the Oilers' dangerous power-play group score, while the Kings cashed in four of their man-advantage situations. Since the holiday break, Copley has won five of his six appearances, giving up 16 goals in that span. The 30-year-old improved to 11-2-0 with a 2.56 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 13 contests. The Kings have an easier matchup Wednesday versus the Sharks.

Copley stopped 19 of 20 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Copley saw a seven-game win streak end Thursday versus the Bruins, but it didn't take him long to bounce back. It was a fairly low-event contest Saturday, but the Kings' offense was a bit more clinical, led by Kevin Fiala's hat trick. Copley improved to 10-2-0 with a 2.52 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 12 contests. The Kings are back at home Monday against the ever-dangerous Oilers' offense.

Per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site, Copley was the first goaltender off the ice at practice Saturday, indicating he will guard the visiting goal against Vegas.
EDGE Analysis
This will be Copley's 10th start in the last 12 games. He has taken over as the No. 1 netminder with the Kings and is 9-2-0 with a 2.65 GAA and a .901 save percentage. It will be a divisional battle between the first-place Golden Knights and the second-place Kings, who trail by six points in the Pacific standings.

Copley allowed four goals in 21 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Copley's seven-game winning streak was snapped by the best team in the NHL. It was a little revenge for the Bruins -- Copley started that streak Dec. 15 in Boston. The 30-year-old goalie is now at 9-2-0 with a 2.65 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 11 outings after this rough start. The Kings are off to Vegas on Saturday for a brief one-game road trip, and it's unclear which goalie might draw the start for that tough assignment.

Copley allowed two goals on 30 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
This was Copley's seventh straight win. During the streak, Jonathan Quick has picked up a pair of starts and lost them both, further solidifying Copley's grip on the No. 1 job. The 30-year-old has allowed two or fewer goals in five of the games during his streak. He's up to 9-1-0 with a 2.52 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 10 starts. The Kings will have a tough test Thursday when they host the league-leading Bruins.

Copley was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, LA Kings Insider Zach Dooley reports, indicating he will be in goal at home versus Dallas.
EDGE Analysis
Copley will be making his eighth appearance in the Kings' last 10 outings and appears to have cemented himself as the No. 1 option for Los Angeles. In those prior seven contests, the 30-year-old netminder is sporting a 6-1-0 record and 2.74 GAA.

Copley allowed four goals on 27 shots in Thursday's 5-4 shootout win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Copley bent in the second period, where he allowed all four goals, but the Kings battled back to tie the game in the third. He stopped both of the Avalanche's shootout attempts to secure his sixth straight win. This was just the second time he's allowed four or more goals in nine outings this season. He improved to 8-1-0 with a 2.58 GAA and a .905 save percentage. It looks like he's at least temporarily overtaken Jonathan Quick for the No. 1 job, though the Kings' longtime top goalie is likely to get a chance to carve out some playing time in January.
