Ducks, Sharks into playoffs after Kings' loss
by Navin Vaswani from on (#2HDZY)
It's Playoff Clinching Night in the Pacific Division.
The Anaheim Ducks and San Jose Sharks will officially compete for the Stanley Cup, earning their postseason berths after the Los Angeles Kings dropped a 2-1 decision to the Edmonton Oilers (who clinched their first playoff berth since 2006 with the win).
It will be the Ducks' fifth straight playoff appearance, and their 10th in 12 seasons.
The Sharks are looking to avenge last year's loss in the Stanley Cup Final to the Pittsburgh Penguins. It's their second straight playoff appearance with head coach Peter DeBoer behind the bench.
