The Underrated Avengers

Hawkeye — Daniel Sprong

Hawkeye is best known for his expert marksmanship with a bow and arrow. While Daniel Sprong may not be an expert in the field of archery, his weapon of choice is his hockey stick. At the young age of 22, Sprong easily has the best and most accurate shot of anyone else currently on the Anaheim Ducks.

One of the biggest criticisms of Hawkeye is that he was underutilized in the MCU with his absence in Avengers: Infinity War. Before coming to Anaheim, Daniel Sprong also suffered from being underutilized by the Pittsburgh Penguin organization. However, both of them made their triumphant return, Sprong to the NHL and Hawkey to the MCU, and were better than ever.

Ant-Man — Sam Steel

Sam Steel is one of the smallest players on the Anaheim Ducks roster but he is still incredibly strong and plays a mean game of hockey. Fans sometimes underestimate him and his talent, but he always ends up proving himself. Plus, he’s an absolute criminal with the puck.

Spiderman — Kiefer Sherwood

Kiefer Sherwood was one of the more inexperienced rookies that came onto the scene this year. Undrafted prior to being signed by the Anaheim Ducks last season, he has not received the training his fellow prospects have with the Ducks over the past few years. Yet, still, he has held his own.

Nevertheless, he still packs a punch and has saved the Anaheim Ducks from a few sticky situations. An added bonus is his exuberant enthusiasm, very reminiscent of Spiderman portrayed by Tom Holland.
