The Anaheim Ducks scored 11 goals across their past two games but failed to win either contest due to persistent defensive and goaltending struggles. Anaheim suffered an overtime defeat to the Vancouver Canucks on Oct. 27 after blowing a late three-goal lead, followed by a 7-6 loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Oct. 29.

Writer Todd Matthews notes that goaltenders Lukas Dostal and Ville Husso hold a combined .867 save percentage and 3.74 goals-against average through 13 games. The Ducks have also conceded 111 high-danger scoring chances at five-on-five, which Matthews argues must improve before facing the Ottawa Senators on Nov. 1.
