Preseason hockey is a time for veterans to get their legs under them and for some young stars to earn their spots on an NHL team. Fans love it as their favorite teams come back from a summer off and we get our first look at this year’s team.
Five games through a seven game preseason for the Anaheim Ducks and they currently sit at 2-3-1. Not bad, but considering the past three have resulted in 0-3-1 fans are getting noticeably antsy about what this team is.
With only one preseason contest left and roster cuts most likely coming down, today I want to see how the storylines I wrote about last week have played out.
