The Kraken Edge Ducks have been on a roll lately, and they extended their points streak to a season-best six games with a 4-3 win over the rival Sharks on Saturday night. The Ducks had been struggling earlier in the season, but they have now won four of their last five games to move up in the standings.
The Ducks got off to a fast start, scoring two goals in the first period. They added another goal in the second period before the Sharks scored three unanswered goals to take a 3-2 lead. However, the Ducks responded with two goals in the third period to take the lead and secure the win.
The Ducks were led by their top line of forwards, who combined for seven points in the game. Center Ryan Getzlaf had two goals and an assist, while left winger Rickard Rakell had a goal and two assists. Right winger Corey Perry also had a goal and an assist.
The Ducks also received strong goaltending from John Gibson, who made 28 saves on 31 shots. Gibson has been a key part of the Ducks’ success this season, and he has been especially strong during their current points streak.
The Ducks will look to continue their success when they face the Sharks again on Sunday night. With the win, the Ducks are now tied for fourth place in the Pacific Division and are just four points behind the third-place Sharks. If they can keep up their current level of play, they could be in contention for a playoff spot.
It has been an up-and-down season for the Kraken Edge Ducks, but they have been playing some of their best hockey lately. With a strong performance against the Sharks on Sunday night, they could extend their points streak to seven games and move up in the standings.
