(Sports Network) - The Ducks are off to their worst start to a season in five years. Anaheim will try to halt a season-opening three-game losing streak tonight against the Edmonton Oilers at the Honda Center.

The Ducks have opened the season with setbacks to San Jose, Phoenix, and most recently last night to the Los Angeles Kings. Anaheim has lost its first three games of the season for the first time since it dropped five in a row to start the 2003-04 campaign.

Brian Sutherby and Todd Marchant scored the first two goals of last night's game, but the Kings went on to score the next five in what was a 6-3 setback for Anaheim.

Teemu Selanne also scored in defeat, and he has 41 goals and 34 assists in 62 career tests versus Edmonton.

Jean-Sebastien Giguere allowed all five goals on 22 shots faced, and he has allowed 13 goals through the first three games of the season. That could force Anaheim to give backup netminder Jonas Hiller his first action of the season. Hiller went 10-7-1 with a 2.06 goals against average in 23 games, 18 of those starts, last year and has never started against the Oilers.

Giguere is 5-11-2 with a tie and 2.88 GAA in 20 career tests versus Edmonton.

Anaheim, which is 0-for-11 on the power play so far this year, begins a three- game homestand tonight.

Edmonton, meanwhile, plays its first road test of the season after opening the year with a 3-2 home win over Colorado on Sunday. Dustin Penner's tip-in with 5.4 seconds remaining in regulation lifted the Oilers to their victory.

Penner ended with two goals in all, while Shawn Horcoff posted a first-period power-play tally for the Oilers, who also play in Calgary on Friday. Ethan Moreau finished with a pair of assists in the victory.

Mathieu Garon stopping all but two of Colorado's 33 shots. He is 5-6-3 with a 3.12 GAA in 14 games versus the Ducks, all but one of those starts. Backup Dwayne Roloson, meanwhile, is 7-6-1 with a tie and 2.50 GAA in 15 career tests versus Anaheim.

Edmonton, which went 18-18-5 on the road in 2007-08, won three of four versus Anaheim last year and has won eight of the last 12 in the series. The Oilers have also won two straight and four of their last six at the Honda Center.
