Game Time: 7:00 PM, KCOP-13
It’s not often that a late-season game between the Kings and the Ducks has much more meaning for either than bragging rights and, occasionally, the potential for a slight jostle here or there in the standings.
Not the story this year.
The Kings and Ducks are competing for essentially the same playoff spot, having done quite their share of flipping positions over the past few weeks. Fighting for playoff positioning is familiar territory for the Kings, but for the Ducks, who have won the Western Conference for the past five seasons, these are uncharted waters.
