The Kings scored three times in the second period to chase Gibson, who has saved 105 of 128 shots (.820) in five games since playing in the 2022 Honda NHL All-Star Game on Feb. 5.
"I think he's been greatly fatigued coming out of [the All-Star break]," Ducks coach Dallas Eakins said. "We're extremely excited that he goes and represents our team, and it's a spotlight on him because he's certainly earned it. The other side of it is you come out of that, you're right back at practice, right back to playing and there's no rest."
Kempe made it 2-0 at 3:51. Kopitar stole the puck behind the Anaheim net and fed Kempe for a one-timer from the left circle during 4-on-4 play.
"Everything was going fine in the second period until we had a turnover, tough exchange behind the net, and bang, it's in your net," Eakins said.
Kopitar increased the lead to 3-0 at 10:11 when he scored on a one-timer from the right circle on a power play.
"We get one on the power play and it gets us confidence going into 5-on-5 too," Kempe said. "You feel better, obviously."
