Anaheim Outlook

The Ducks played last night and were blown out 6-1 by the Arizona Coyotes. Special teams play did the Ducks in as the Coyotes scored twice on the power play and once short-handed. Ryan Miller was in net so John Gibson should get the nod tonight. Ryan Kesler continues to sit out with his hip issue.

Ryan Getzlaf leads the team in assists (29) and points (41) while Jakob Silfverberg has a team-leading 21 goals this season.

Brendan Guhle is still day-to-day with an upper-body injury.
