Ducks 2, Kings 0
Bret Hedican blasted a slap shot from just inside the blue line that did not appear to be deflected. The goal cleanly beat Ersberg and came with 4:20 remaining. The Kings continue to outshoot the Ducks but that's not going to matter much in another four minutes without a dramatic turnaround

BAAAAAAD goal. Ersberg being outplayed by another goalie tonight. Hiller is outplaying him.
That being said the Kings look tired and uninspired tonight.
Terrible, terrible game by the Kings.
TOOTHLESS...
Not even some PatiO, Kopi, Brown down a goal in the 3rd?
Put Harrold out on defense for the offense after it's 0-2?
Boys against Men tonight, eh?
It is a bad goal but you are going to win very few hockey games if you are going late in the third period without any goals...
A deafening silence from the Labarbara-bashing "soft-goal-experts."
Curious.

Keep in mind that EE did make some saves earlier in the game that would have probably given JLB some trouble, so for the score to end up only 2-0 is probably better than what it would've been.
