Los Angeles Kings best line was clear against the Ducks
One of Jim Hiller's big changes to the lines was moving Quinton Byfield back to left wing with Anze Kopitar and Adrian Kempe, where he played last season. The subsequent move was to slide Alex Laferriere back to play with Alex Turcotte and Warren Foegele.
It seemed like this move was to try and get the top line going with Byfield back alongside Kopitar and Kempe but the best line against the Ducks, similar to the Canadiens, was Laferriere-Turcotte-Foegele. While Adrian Kempe got the scoring started for the Los Angeles Kings, this line made their presence known with a goal shortly after by Alex Laferriere that extended the Kings' lead to 2-0 in the third period.
They only accounted for one of the four goals when on the ice but they were doing a great job controlling the puck. They were definitely the most consistent for the Kings in giving them offensive chances on the night and there is no reason for Hiller to break them up.
