(Θέση16η Ν.1-ΝΠ5-ΗΠ.3-Η.17 Τερμ.65-111)
The Ducks are clearly the worst team in the Western Conference this year, by far. They became 1η team that broke the barrier of one hundred (100) goals passively and with the negative streak, of no clean win (I mean cc) away from home in sixteen (16) games! In fact, in the last ten (10) games they have beaten them only once (1)! Another element that I notice is their bad attack, since in these ten (10) matches only two (2) times did they exceed three (3) active goals! Absent are Klingberg J. (A.20sym/1g/7as), Drysdale J.(A.8sym), Lundestrom I. (Ε.24συμ. / 1γκ / 5ασ), Grant D. (E.15com/2g/1as) and Comtois M. (E.15cm./4g).

(Θέση4η Ν.10-ΝΠ.4-ΗΠ.5-Η.6 Τέρμ.74-69)
They reached the four (4) streak wins and climbed to 4η position. They are a good team that pays a lot of attention to their backs, they lose very hard and they are not easily swayed by the pace of others. They are coming off a tough but fair win over the Los Angeles Kings 2-4 away from home. In a match that they cleaned up with 0-3 until the 2ndη period but not as easily as the score suggests. Absences Andersen F. (T.8comp/89.06%ap), Gardiner J. (A.), Kase O. (E.1comp) Pacioretty M. (E.).
The "Ducks" can't this year. In fact, they struggle to score goals. Their games are usually low-scoring at home. On the other hand, the "Hurricanes" may not be up to last year's standards yet, but they are very good defensively and definitely a better team. 2&Under7.5.
