Ducks Return Home After Impressive Opener
There should be plenty of excitement surrounding Anaheim’s home opener.
The Ducks are coming off a 4-3 victory over Vegas, and Carlsson wasted no time showing why he remains one of the organization’s most important players.
Anaheim matched the five-year, $90 million offer sheet Carlsson received from the Philadelphia Flyers during the offseason, making his performance one of the most fascinating early-season storylines surrounding the Ducks.
He delivered immediately with two points in the opener.
Now comes a major test against Florida.
The Panthers have established themselves among the NHL’s elite over the past several seasons, giving Anaheim an early opportunity to measure itself against a team with championship expectations.
There is another interesting storyline Sunday.
Radko Gudas returns to Anaheim as a member of the Panthers after spending three seasons with the Ducks and serving as team captain for the past two seasons.
Anaheim fans will have plenty to watch.
A home opener, one of the NHL’s most exciting young stars and a visit from one of the league’s premier teams make this one of Sunday’s more intriguing games.
