Quick Start Helps Ducks Skate to 3-0 Preseason Win Over Avalanche

With a pair of goals in the first six minutes, Anaheim rolls to fourth win of the exhibition season.

Sometimes all it takes is a strong start.

Thanks to goals from Shawn Horcoff and Mike Santorelli in the opening six minutes, the Anaheim Ducks rode a strong first period effort through for their fourth straight preseason win 3-0 over the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday night at Honda Center.

The Ducks dominated the opening 20 minutes, outshooting Colorado by an 18-6 margin and controlling the puck for the vast majority of the period.
