For the moment Anaheim finds themselves back in playoff positioning thanks to picking up nine of a possible ten points post-Christmas.
After putting a close to the first playoff series in Winnipeg since back when Nikolai Khabibulin, Keith Tkachuk, and Shane Doan skated for the original iteration of the franchise in short order last season, the Anaheim Ducks continued their mastery of the Jets nee-Thrashers on Sunday night at Honda Center. Power play goals on both of their opportunities, another opponent smothered from shot-generation, and Anaheim in a position where they haven't been for a while but almost everybody expected they'd be.
