KINGS vs. PITTSBURGH

Faceoff: 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Staples Center

TV/Radio: FSW / 1150-AM

Update: The Kings return home from their Grammys trip to face Sidney Crosby and the Penguins. It’s only the third visit to Staples Center for Crosby, whose last appearance was Nov. 5, 2009. The Kings have scored only two goals in their last four games and were 2-5-1 during their eight-games trip, which included a 3-0 loss to the Ducks at Dodger Stadium. Pittsburgh’s Dan Bylsma, the U.S. Olympic coach, will get a live look at Team USA’s goalie Jonathan Quick and forward Dustin Brown, neither of whom is playing particularly well. Quick was 2-4-1 on the trip and Brown has only 16 points, including 10 goals, in 54 games. The Kings (30-19-6) are one of the league’s worst offensive teams (2.31 goals per game, 26th in the league). The Penguins (37-14-2) are one of the best (3.15, fourth).
