Final: Ducks 4, Capitals 7.
Goals came from Kreider, Killorn, Trouba and Sennecke.
Anaheim can’t overcome early deficit and concede two empty netters. This team can certainly score, but defense continues to be an issue.

Radko Gudas on tonight’s performance:
“I thought we dictated the pace in the first. In the second period, we overextended a few shifts. We couldn’t get the puck behind their blue line… we had some long shifts and over time, it kind of built up.”

The Ducks have FIVE prospects competing at World Juniors, silly me 🤦🏻♂️
Don’t have anything recent on Darels Uļjanskis, but we also spoke to him at rookie camp.
“For me, it would be best to adapt for North American hockey (in the OHL) and just be 100% ready when I go (to the NCAA).”
