The offseason felt like an eternity after a...umm....difficult (?) ending to the season last year. Anaheim was given an immediate opportunity for redemption of sorts as they opened the season at the SAP Center in San Jose, the scene of last spring’s murder.
This game was the absolute John Gibson show, and quite frankly, the Ducks had zero business being even slightly competitive in this game. However, with a lucky bounce or two and a couple well-timed goals, the Ducks were able to steal two points in the season opener from the Sharks.
