Ducks tonight

By Helene Elliott

VS. ATLANTA

Time: 5 p.m.

On the air: TV: Prime Ticket. Radio: 830.

Site: Honda Center.

Records: Ducks 28-24-5, Thrashers 19-32-5.

Record vs. Thrashers: 1-0-0 (2006-07).

Update: The Ducks have won two straight games and four of their last six overall but haven’t won three in a row since Nov. 22-30, when they won four. They’ve scored at least one power-play goal in 15 of their last 19 games. Center Samuel Pahlsson, out the last five games because of a viral infection, is still resting. The Thrashers have lost seven of their last nine games. Defenseman Mathieu Schneider is scheduled to make his first appearance in Anaheim since the Ducks dealt him to the Thrashers in a deal largely driven by salary-cap considerations.
