The Ducks need this trip to be a lot more fruitful than the last one, when they went 2-2-1 and suffered two bad losses.
Their playoff hopes are on the line, and they already squandered one precious opportunity to create some separation Sunday.
The Ducks held a 2-1 lead, but the San Jose Sharks scored the equalizer with 54 seconds left and then won it in a shootout.
As it stands, the Ducks are jockeying for position with six teams for four playoff spots. And they'll play one of those teams during the four-game road swing, a Saturday matchup in Minnesota.
