The Anaheim Ducks are looking for the third win of their five-game road trip, and tonight they’re headed straight for Hurricane country. Will the Ducks get caught in the middle of a perfect storm or will the winds of change come in and save them from devastation?

After a difficult loss to the Nashville Predators, the Anaheim Ducks seemed to have found some momentum during the Florida portion of their road trip. They have managed to snatch four of the six possible points so far on their trip. Their season record currently sits at 12-10-5. Hopefully, they can keep the momentum going while they take on the Carolina Hurricanes tonight.

Did you know? The last time the Anaheim Ducks lost to the Carolina Hurricanes was on December 11, 2015, at the Honda Center. The game ended with a score of 5-1; Jakob Silfverberg scored the Ducks one and only goal of the night. During that same game, former Carolina Hurricane, Jeff Skinner, also scored his third career hat trick.

Today in Anaheim Ducks History: Exactly one year ago today, the Anaheim Ducks traded defenseman Sami Vatanen to the New Jersey Devils for Adam Henrique and Joseph Blandisi.
