In a tightly contested matchup, the Los Angeles Kings edged the Anaheim Ducks 2-1, thanks to Alex Laferriere's tiebreaking goal early in the third period. Laferriere also contributed an assist, while Erik Portillo made an impressive 28 saves in his NHL debut.
Ryan Strome scored the Ducks' lone goal, but the team struggled offensively, failing to capitalize on multiple opportunities, including a power play. The Kings continue to show resilience after a tough loss earlier in the week.
