When we first went live with SB Nation’s FanPulse surveys earlier this season, not many fans believed that the Anaheim Ducks had a great shot at returning to the playoffs after missing out last year for the first time in six years.
Just 7.86% of respondents believed Anaheim would return to the Stanley Cup Playoffs this season at the time. Now, after what can only be described as a nightmare middle of the season run, confidence that they can make the playoffs is now almost non-existent. As one would expect.
We now have updated results at the halfway point of the season.
