The past two seasons have felt like an eternity for Anaheim Ducks fans. It’s difficult when you have to watch your team go from playoff contenders to cellar dwellers in the span of just a few years. We have been spoiled with good hockey in Southern California for a good while. All good teams must fall, and unfortunatley, that time is now for the Anaheim Ducks.
Nevertheless, despite the distance that separates the Ducks from Lord Stanley, it brings them closer to a high draft pick that they desperately need. Last year, they were extremely lucky when Steve Yzerman selected German defenseman, Moritz Seider, with their 6th overall pick, opening the way for the Ducks to draft elite American center, Trevor Zegras.
