Los Angeles Kings vs Anaheim Ducks Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 01/17/26

The Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks face off again after their recent matchup just a day ago. Last night, the game saw a total of five goals, which was lower than many experts had anticipated. The Kings have now lost three consecutive games and have struggled to score more than two goals in each of those outings. Notably, all of these games took place at home, where they have performed poorly since the start of the season. However, they have a 12-6-5 road record and average over 3 goals per game away from home.

The Ducks are currently dealing with significant injuries at an inconvenient time. Troy Terry has been placed on injured reserve, Leo Carlsson is expected to be sidelined for three to five weeks, and Chris Kreider is questionable for tonight’s game. Anaheim had only 11 forwards on the ice yesterday; despite securing a win, their performance was lacklustre. Even with the injuries, the Ducks still possess enough talent in their lineup to score a few goals. We can anticipate both teams creating scoring opportunities, which hopefully will result in an exciting game with plenty of goals.
