Snowmageddon game, meet Glassgate. The Ducks seem to up the ante every season in terms of unusual occurrences, so it was true to form when there was a 45-minute delay in Thursday’s game because of a broken pane of glass.
The Ducks also made a minor trade and lost Jakob Silfverberg to an undisclosed injury on a strange night at Honda Center. So there was a collective exhale when Nick Ritchie scored with 2:02 left in the third period for a 2-1 win against the Colorado Avalanche.
Ritchie grabbed a loose puck, off a Nikita Zadorov’s turnover, and fired from the high slot for his 11th goal of the season.
