Ducks wrap up Pacific Division title

Anaheim’s Nate Thompson scored his first goal of the season to tie it with 8:26 to play and Shea Theodore won it in overtime, helping the Ducks clinch their fifth consecutive Pacific Division title with a 4-3 victory over the Kings in Anaheim on Sunday night.

Theodore scored on a breakaway to end the Freeway Faceoff, but the Ducks (46-23-13) already had locked up a first-round playoff date with Calgary by earning a point in their 14th consecutive game down the stretch (11-0-3).

The Ducks are the first NHL team to win five straight division titles since the Vancouver Canucks claimed the last five Northwest Division crowns (2009-13).
