FINAL: Ducks 2, Kings 0

The Kings fall to 1-1-1 in the season series against the Ducks, as they win the shot battle, 29-26, but go 0-for-5 on the power play and generate few memorable scoring chances.

The Kings had their chances early, with almost six consecutive minutes of power-play time in the first period, and they deftly killed a 5-on-3 Ducks power play in the second period.

Erik Ersberg stopped 24 of 26 shots and once again allowed fewer than three goals in a game, but the Ducks’ second goal looked shaky and Jonas Hiller stopped all 29 shots he faced.

Drew Doughty led the Kings with 28 minutes, 27 seconds of ice time, yet another astounding total.

The Kings will take tomorrow off and return to practice Tuesday. They face Washington on Thursday.
