FAQ

Kings vs Lightning questions

How often do the Kings and Lightning play each other?

The Los Angeles Kings and the Tampa Bay Lightning meet twice a regular season, once in each arena. Every club plays each club in the other conference twice, home and away, so this is the least often the league schedules any pairing — and outside the Stanley Cup Final it is the only way the Kings and the Lightning meet.

Are the Kings and Lightning in the same division?

No, and not the same conference either. The Los Angeles Kings are a Western Conference club in the Pacific Division; the Tampa Bay Lightning are an Eastern Conference club in the Atlantic. That makes every meeting between them an inter-conference game.

What is at stake when the Kings play the Lightning?

A win is worth two points in the standings, and a loss in overtime or a shootout still earns one — so a game that goes past regulation puts three points on the table rather than two. An inter-conference game cannot move the Kings and the Lightning past each other in any playoff race — they compete for places in different conferences — but the points count toward each club’s total exactly as any other game’s do, and the overall table decides home-ice advantage in the Stanley Cup Final and the Presidents’ Trophy.

Can the Kings and Lightning meet in the playoffs?

Only in the Stanley Cup Final. The Kings are in the Western Conference and the Lightning in the Eastern Conference, and each conference plays out its own bracket until the final round.

Where can I follow the Kings and Lightning for the rest of the season?

Each club has its own Kalshi team page with its schedule, form and futures prices, and every Kings and Lightning game Kalshi lists has a market page with the moneyline. The NHL standings, schedule and Stanley Cup odds pages cover the rest of the league, and the matchup index carries every other pairing the Los Angeles Kings and the Tampa Bay Lightning are in.
