The losses continue to mount for the Anaheim Ducks. At press time, it was 12 and counting after a 3-1 loss to Detroit on Tuesday night. Despite the wheels falling off, the Ducks are still within striking distance of a wildcard spot. Three points out of the playoffs and a .500 record seem unfathomable but that is where Anaheim finds itself.
GM Bob Murray unloaded Andrew Cogliano for Devin Shore earlier in the week. Cogliano was a heart and soul player whose offensive game had fallen away from him. Shore possesses some offensive talent but defensively can leave much to be desired.
