The Anaheim Ducks fell to the Maple Leafs by a final score of 3-1, but the score does not really give the Ducks the credit that I think they deserve. The offense generated plenty of scoring opportunities, and had it not been for a couple great saves from Frederik Andersen or shots that caught a lot of iron, the outcome of this game could have been vastly different.
Bottom line, however, are the words “could have”. There are a lot of things that could have gone better, and there are a lot of things that could have gone worse, but a 3-1 loss counts as zero points in the standings no matter which angle you view it.
