The Ducks were eliminated by the Predators in Game 7, suffering another early playoff exit.
The winner of the series was set to play the San Jose Sharks in Round 2 in the Western Conference.
After the loss, NHL legend Teemu Selanne updated his Stanley Cup Playoff predictions.
"Tough loss for (Anaheim Ducks), they played well, Rinne was like a wall, only the BEST goalie could stop them and he did.
"Now when (Anaheim Ducks) is out, I have a feeling that this year belongs to (San Jose Sharks) ...just a feeling but They look Strong!
