Carter calls Kings 'fragile' after loss in Buffalo
Jeff Carter did his part.
The Los Angeles Kings center scored a pair of goals against the Sabres on Tuesday, but his team still skated off the ice in Buffalo with a 6-3 loss to its credit.
Carter clearly wasn't pleased with the result, as the Kings kicked off a nine-game road trip.

Los Angeles' home/away records this season certainly validate Carter's criticism.
| Home | Away | |
|---|---|---|
| Games | 15 | 13 |
| Record | 10-4-1 | 4-8-1 |
Tuesday's loss dropped the Kings to 14-12-2 on the season, good for 30 points and a rather unstable hold on a wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
Things won't get much easier for Los Angeles, with upcoming dates in Detroit, Pittsburgh, Boston, Columbus, Nashville, Dallas, Vancouver, and Edmonton on the calendar, before the team returns home.
