Rakell Returns To Lead Anaheim Ducks To 4-0 Rout Of Kings

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Rickard Rakell had a goal and two assists in his season debut, and John Gibson stopped 30 shots to earn his seventh career shutout in the Anaheim Ducks' 4-0 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night.

Antoine Vermette and Ryan Kesler scored power-play goals 31 seconds apart in the second period before Joseph Cramarossa scored his first NHL goal for the Ducks, who emphatically won the first Freeway Faceoff rivalry game of the season.

Vermette and Kesler scored two points apiece, and Corey Perry added two assists. The Ducks have earned points in five of six after an 0-3-1 start to the season.

The Kings have been shut out in three straight games for the first time since 1968-69, their second NHL season.
