LOS ANGELES -- Sometimes you can learn the most about yourself, through your enemy. So I sat down with a former Coaching colleague and current Anaheim Ducks analyst/content creator Zach Gray to diagnose our respective teams, each other's teams, talk the incredibly slow starts of franchise cornerstones Trevor Zegras and Quinton Byfield, and much more.
While the Ducks have had a start that was relative to their expectations, the rumors of Head Coach Greg Cronin running the young team ragged have picked up steam. Across the freeway, the Kings had much loftier expectations going into this season and have shown a mix of both promising and concerning signs in the first 20 games.
