Kings' Peter Budaj: Stymies Blackhawks for fifth straight win

Budaj picked up his fifth straight win Saturday, stopping 18 of 19 shots in an overtime win over Chicago.

Analysis:

Budaj has now made 20 consecutive appearances in the Los Angeles net and advances to 12-6-1 on the season with a .917 save percentage. The veteran is playing excellent hockey for a surging Kings squad currently sitting sixth in the Western Conference. Given the fact Budaj has allowed two or fewer goals in each of his last five outings, he's a fairly solid bet in fantasy right now.
