They don’t like working overtime.
The Ducks are 0-3 in overtime and 2-4 in shootouts, losing valuable points on each occasion. On Friday they couldn’t hold a 1-0 lead but came back to pull even in the third period, only to lose on Matt Dumba’s goal in three-on-three play.
“It’s frustrating. Disappointing,” defenseman Francois Beauchemin said. “I thought we had a decent hockey game. We played good at times. They capitalized off our mistakes. We didn’t make too many, but just the little things.”
The little things could mean a lot in a tight playoff chase.
