LAst Night's Action: Kings and Ducks Fall Flat on the Road
This is what the Kings and Kings' fans hope to see a lot at the STAPLES Center this season. (LAist/Jimmy Bramlett)
Nashville Predators defeat LA Kings 2-1. Dustin Brown scored the Kings late goal as they looked flat in the Music City. By the way, Brown has scored four of the Kings' last five goals as the Kings stood pat in the final hours of the trade deadline.
Colorado Avalanche defeat Anaheim Ducks 4-1. Bobby Ryan tied the game at the end of the second period with a power-play goal. The Avs Ryan O'Reilly scored in the opening minute of the third period, and the Avs didn't look back. Boom went the dynamite I suppose.
