The Anaheim Ducks are stuck in a rut and for a team with as talented a roster as anyone, it is simply becoming unacceptable.
The Ducks have been shutout four times already this season and have generated just six goals through the first seven games. Jamie Benn and Max Pacioretty have more individual goals than the entire Ducks team has at this point.
What was thought to be bad puck luck at first has turned into complete system failure. There is not one aspect of the Ducks game that has appeared to be a promising sign other than the play of goaltender Freddie Andersen.
