The Anaheim Ducks fell to the Los Angeles Kings 4-3 in overtime last night. Based on the score, you would have thought the Ducks were at full strength. As you can see below, Dimitri Filipovic posted our lineup below:
Let’s discuss that first line. We have Derek Grant. I repeat, we have Derek Grant on the first line going against one of the best centers in the league—Anze Kopitar. In all seriousness, Derek Grant played well last night. He was extremely physical and created multiple scoring chances. In fact, Grant extended his point streak to 5 games with his 9th point in 15 games with Anaheim.
