So this is it. The part of the preview you’ve no doubt be waiting for. Special teams. Sure the game is mostly played at even strength, but every so often incredible goaltending, or a stupidly hot power play can turn a series. You want to know how these two giants of the Pacific Division measure up. Well.... let’s start this journey shorthanded.
Surprisingly, the Anaheim Ducks were the 4th most shorthanded team in the league this year. That's right. Fourth. Not first. I’m as surprised as you.
They did, however, have 50 times the practice of the 28th most penalised team, and their soon to be playoff opponents, the San Jose Sharks.
