Hot Streak Kings to Face Struggling Ducks in California Rivalry

Kings' Road Prowess and Power Play Hindrance Meet Ducks' Penalty Troubles and Young Talent

The Los Angeles Kings, currently on a three-game winning streak, are set to face the Anaheim Ducks, who are on a four-game losing streak.
The Kings have lifted themselves up the divisional standings, sitting on 25 points through 17 games, trailing only the Vegas Golden Knights and Vancouver Canucks.
Much of the Kings' success has been attributed to their road prowess and ability to hinder powerful power play units across the league.
The Ducks have struggled to win close games despite their early-season success coming in tight contests and have taken the most individual penalties of any team in the NHL with 107.
Young players like 20-year-old Mason McTavish and 18-year-old Leo Carlson continue to give the Ducks a chance each night, with McTavish leading the team with 10 goals and 20 points.
