It's no secret that the St. Louis Blues and Anaheim Ducks have used outstanding special teams as a major part of their success.
These are the league's top teams on the penalty kill and have also fared well on the power play heading into Friday night's matchup in St. Louis.
Anaheim (37-20-9) is at 86.6 percent on the penalty kill and St. Louis at 86.4. They are among the league's best with the man advantage as well, with the Ducks at 22.9 and Blues at 22.4.
St. Louis (39-20-9) showed how tough it can be on the penalty kill by limiting red-hot Chicago to 1 for 4 on the power play in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout victory.
