Best: Exceeding Expectations
Well, the season is over.
This ending hurts, but there are still plenty of reasons to be happy. The Ducks came out of nowhere to beat two more Alberta teams to make it to another Western Conference Final. Not many people saw Anaheim winning the Pacific Division yet alone making the playoffs. Even a Carlyle coached team was able to show signs of success throughout the year. Maybe the cup window is not closed after all.
Worst: Lack of Depth
It was a miracle that Anaheim played as well as they did in Game 6 given their roster.
