Latest news and updates about the Ducks
There are 18 days remaining in the NHL’s regular season. Two teams, Colorado and Dallas, have officially clinched playoff spots, while Carolina, Tampa Bay, Buffalo, Minnesota, Montreal and Anaheim are locks to get in. The Edmonton Oilers’ three-game winning streak, only their second of the season, has them in a very favourable position to get…
“Look at us. Who would’ve thought? Not me,” said Paul Rudd, said Connor Ingram. The Edmonton Oilers netminder smiled ear to ear when he was interviewed by Tony Brar in-house after the 4-2 win over Anaheim on Saturday afternoon. Ingram held down the fort despite the Ducks’ furious attempt for their 26th comeback victory of the…
The Toronto Maple Leafs are facing the Anaheim Ducks on Monday night. And you know that this team, which has shown some fight and gumption in the games AFTER Gudas chopped down Auston Matthews with his dirty hit, would love to get a crack at him for some revenge. But Gudas was in a walking boot after Thursday's Ducks game following an awkward fall against the boards. He didn't play in Anaheim's game on Saturday. That would give him an 'out' from having to face the music against the Leafs...
For just the second time this season, the Oilers are on a three-game winning streak. This stretch has come at an ideal time for Edmonton. Their win in Vegas earlier this week kept them ahead of the Golden Knights in the Pacific Division standings, and Saturday’s win over the Ducks cut Anaheim’s lead for first…
After a massive OT win in Vegas on Thursday night, the Edmonton Oilers were back at Rogers Place for a little matinee action against the Pacific Division-leading Anaheim Ducks. And in what could be a playoff matchup down the line, these two teams definitely played this game like it meant way more than just some…
That was a statement victory by the Edmonton Oilers. On Saturday afternoon, the Oilers defeated the Anaheim Ducks by a score of 4-2 to move within three points of the Ducks for the Pacific Division lead. Over the last week or so, the Oilers have started to look more and more like the team that…
The Edmonton Oilers are back at Rogers Place on Saturday afternoon for a massive divisional matchup against the Anaheim Ducks, and with only a handful of games left on the schedule, every single point feels heavier than the last. The boys did a great job sweeping their road trip, knocking off Utah and Vegas along…
After sweeping this week’s two-game road trip with wins over Utah and Vegas, the Oilers are back at the friendly confines of Rogers Place for the penultimate homestand of the regular season. First up are the Pacific Division-leading Ducks, who arrive five points up on Edmonton with only a handful of games left on the…
I want to believe the Edmonton Oilers this time. I really do. But there is a California-sized steel trap hovering above this afternoon’s matchup against the Anaheim Ducks. The Oilers close out an overtime victory against the Vegas Golden Knights on Thursday, take all four possible points on the road this week, setting up a matchup…
The Edmonton Oilers’ chances at finishing first in the Pacific Division hinge on Saturday’s game against the Anaheim Ducks. As it stands, the Oilers are five points behind the Ducks with one additional game played. With just nine games remaining, their odds of finishing first in the division are already pretty slim, but a loss…
There’s plenty left to be decided in the Pacific Division with three weeks to play. The Ducks lead the way with a 40-27-4 record, five points up on Edmonton and six points ahead of Vegas, with one game in hand on both teams. If neither team can catch Anaheim, the stretch drive will be about…
The Anaheim Ducks and Pittsburgh Penguins are no strangers to making trades, however, turns out they almost made a deal together ahead of the Mar.6 trade deadline. Reports have indicated before the Ducks shipped Ryan Strome to the Calgary Flames, they were in talks with Kyle Dubas and the Penguins about a potential deal. Frank Seravalli: The Penguins were...one of the teams that was calling Anaheim to get in on Ryan Strome; don't have to give up anything, it's just cap space, maybe...
Anaheim Ducks captain Radko Gudas is in his feelings about kneeing Toronto Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews The physical defenceman got caught out of position last week, and delivered a vicious knee to the Maple Leafs' superstar, resulting in Matthews suffering a torn MCL. Matthews has since had surgery and is expected to make a full recovery ahead of training camp in September. Meanwhile, Gudas does it again, but this time, he's feeling very guilty about what took place. "I really hate the...
The San Jose Sharks are getting ready to play another hot team today as the Philadelphia Flyers roll into town. The Flyers have won six in a row on the road, and are wrapping up the California swing with a stop in San Jose. The first two stops went well for the Flyers, a 3-2 overtime win over the Anaheim Ducks and a 4-3 shootout win over the Los Angeles Kings. While the Sharks appreciate the help in the playoff picture, the team would like to prevent the California sweep today. The last t...
The Edmonton Oilers find themselves in an interesting spot with roughly one month remaining in the NHL season. Even after a disappointing loss to the Florida Panthers, they find themselves just one point back of the Anaheim Ducks for the top spot in the division, and even though the Ducks have two games in hand…
It’s here. The Philadelphia Flyers are in Anaheim facing the Ducks and it’s yet another reunion of sorts. The headline will of course be Cutter Gauthier as we wonder just how fans will react to him facing the team he rejected, but Trevor Zegras is back in Southern California for the first time since his trade to the Flyers. Puck drop: 10:00 p.m. How to watch/listen: 📺: NBCSP 📻: 97.5 The Fanatic Pregame reading The Flyers are going to be making some changes this summer and the...
The NHL’s Department of Player Safety appears comfortable with how it handles suspensions for illegal and dangerous plays. In response to the league suspending Ducks defenceman Radko Gudas for just five games after a knee-on-knee hit that ended Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews’ season, Connor McDavid suggested it may be time to revisit the process….
It was a contentious offseason last summer for the Anaheim Ducks and one of their young core players, Mason McTavish. The 23-year-old center was a restricted free agent, and engaged in a holdout from training camp as the Ducks just weren't convinced they wanted to hand out the kind of massive contract that the player was looking for. In the end, they settled on a six-year, $7 million AAV deal. But McTavish hasn't quite lived up to his end of the bargain this season with just 13 goals and...
First period The passes are just as sloppy as they were last night, which isn’t a good sign early in this one. Kirby Dach takes a hit he’s not expecting from Jeffrey Viel and takes a few seconds to get back up. Perhaps just winded. Apparently not as he’s gone to the dressing room. The concussion spotter may have called him in. Arber Xkehaj goes after Viel, who declines his invitation, and then also turns down Josh Anderson. The good news is you can’t say the Canadien...
Game 66: Montreal Canadiens vs. Anaheim Ducks Start time: 7:00 PM EDT / 4:00 PM PDT In the Canadiens region: TSN2 (English), RDS (French) In the Ducks region: KCOP-13, Victory+ Streaming: ESPN+, RDS, TSN+ This could have been a game in which the Montreal Canadiens were seeking some bonus points after four consecutive wins, but their play wasn’t up to the standard last night that they’d shown through the last couple of games, and they lost for a second time this season to the Sa...
The San Jose Sharks get ready for the second game of back-to-backs today. The good news for the Sharks is that the Ottawa Senators are also playing the second game of a back-to-back, albeit with a bit more rest. The Senators played yesterday afternoon against the Anaheim Ducks and were kind enough to do the Sharks a favor and beat the Ducks 2-0. Ullmark made 23 saves for the shutout. For those of you playoff race watching, that loss allowed the Vegas Golden Knights (F*** Vegas) to leapfro...
Game 66: Montreal Canadiens vs. Anaheim Ducks Start time: 7:00 PM EDT / 4:00 PM PDT In the Canadiens region: TSN2 (English), RDS (French) In the Ducks region: KCOP-13, Victory+ Streaming: ESPN+, RDS, TSN+ The Montreal Canadiens may have played a better defensive game than they had in San Jose 11 days earlier, but the result was still the same on home ice last night: a regulation loss. The Habs were unfortunate to have an early goal disallowed by a quick whistle and then surrend...
Never forget 2007.
A chance to rebound against a mortal enemy.
It was a heartbreaking moment for John Carlson and the Washington Capitals — players and fans alike — when the 17-year Caps veteran was dealt at the trade deadline to the Anaheim Ducks. "He was really crushed by being traded by the only team he's ever played for," said insider Pierre LeBrun on TSN Insider Trading . Many around town thought the franchise's all-time top defenseman should have received a better farewell than a middle-of-the-night voicemail to let him know he'd been traded. ...
