Kings 2, Ducks 0

That period ended at a good time for the Kings, because the Kings’ legs started to look a little heavy and the Ducks spent quite a bit of time in the Kings’ zone over the last five or six minutes.

Bernier…again, what can you say? He has made 17 saves through two periods.

Jack Johnson had a much better period, particularly with the defensive aspects of his game. He threw his body around against George Parros a couple times and got in the middle of the scrum that led to the 4-on-4.

Kyle Calder did some good dirty work in front of the net early in the period.

Raitis Ivanans, as previously mentioned, doesn’t look ready to play.

Rumor is, Alexander Frolov is playing tonight.

Visnovsky is the hardest skater on the ice and appears to be in tremendous physical condition to start the season.

The Ducks are outshooting the Kings 17-14 and the Kings have won 21 of 36 faceoffs. Kopitar and Preissing each have three shots on goal for the Kings.
