Hampus Lindholm and Sami Vatanen would sit out again, leaving the Ducks to their young defensive depth. With the streak still riding, the division still up for grabs, and a night for blood, it had all the markings of a great game. Despite the win, it would come at a heavy cost.
First Period:
This game started off slow, and the Ducks were caught off guard for awhile. Johnny Gaudreau was sprung free and got a quality chance, but Gibson made a nice glove save, and stopped Sean Monahan on the rebound.
