Editor’s Note: The boring part of the summer is upon us. Training camps are still about two months away, and arbitration season in winding down. With many teams close to calling it a summer, it’s a good time to check in on what the Sharks’ rivals have done in our newest series: Pacific Peeks.

The first season of the Anaheim Ducks’ second Randy Carlyle era went far better than many expected. None of our writers predicted the Ducks to finish higher than second in the division ahead of the season, nor did any on SB Nation’s panel.
