The Los Angeles Kings open a nine-game road trip Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres, and are looking to win their first game in Buffalo since a 4-1 win on Feb. 23, 2003. The Sabres are 7-0-0 against the Kings at home during that span. "Obviously coming here, you want to win," said Kings captain Anze Kopitar, who needs two points to reach 700 in his NHL career. "I guess it's one of those buildings where wins are a little tougher to come by, but we'll try and change that tonight." The Kings are 4-7-1 on the road this season, but have scored four goals six times in their past 10 games. "We're still trying to do the same things we've been talking about since Day One here," said defenseman Drew Doughty, who has two goals and two assists in a three-game point streak. "That's get more shots, more bodies in front, make simple plays. I don't know what the difference was getting all those goals, but we're just trying to get pucks to the net and they've been going in and we need to continue to do that." Goaltender Peter Budaj will start; he's 9-4-2 in his past 16 starts, and has held opponents to two goals or fewer in 12 of those 16.
