It’s Halloween, and for the Anaheim Ducks it’s been a frightful couple of weeks. The Ducks will exit the month of October with a foreboding 6-game slide during which they have only obtained 1 ghoulish point. Last night’s game showed once more that the Ducks look less of a lively team looking to improve and more like the skating dead.
On Tuesday, Anaheim appeared to have a fighting chance at life when they tied the game up against the Philadelphia Flyers with two minutes left in the game. Sadly, that was just a collective death-rattle as their lifeless bodies allowed the Flyers to score in the last minute and fifty seconds of regulation, giving them a sixth consecutive loss.
