The Kings won their eighth consecutive game at Crypto.com Arena on Saturday, beating the Ducks 3-1 to match the team’s longest home winning streak in more than three decades and move three points clear of idle Las Vegas in the battle for third place in the Pacific Division.
The Kings, who finished third the last two seasons, have two regular-season games remaining, both at home. Since the All-Star break, the Kings are an NHL-best 13-2-1 at home.
The goals came from Pierre-Luc Dubois and Matt Roy, both in the second period, and Kevin Fiala, with less than three minutes left in the third period.
