Both the Boston Bruins and Ducks started the season with four wins in their first five games. Like Boston, Anaheim benefits from strong goaltending and defense. So far, the Ducks only conceded six goals in five games.
When it comes to the offense, Anaheim has a new leader in town.
For years, the Ducks lived and died by their two franchise forwards: Corey Perry and Ryan Getzlaf. Perry moved on to Dallas, and Getzlaf, while still in Anaheim, isn’t the same player he used to be.
Now, the Ducks hand over the keys to Ondrej Kase.
