Anaheim Ducks vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/27/25

The Anaheim Ducks enter this contest against the Los Angeles Kings as one of the highest-scoring teams in the NHL. Anaheim ranks 4th in the league scoring 3.38 goals per game despite ranking 25th with a power play percentage of 16.5%. The Ducks have thrived at 5-on-5 hockey, and enter Saturday’s matchup against the Kings having scored 3+ goals in 4 of their last 5 games. Los Angeles goaltender Anton Forsberg has allowed 3+ goals in 4 of his last 5 games and has seen his goals-against average jump from 2.19 in November to 2.80 in December. The Ducks should be able to have some offensive success in this one.

On the other side, the Kings are in a bit of an offensive rut. However, they could be in a strong position to bounce back going up against an Anaheim team that is allowing the 3rd-most goals per game in the NHL (3.41). Furthermore, both of these teams rank in the bottom-3rd of the NHL in terms of penalty killing percentage. All in all, both offenses should be in a decent position to thrive in this one. A total of 9 goals were scored in the first meeting between these teams this season back on November 28, and we could have another high-scoring affair on deck. Look to the over.
