Time to collapse the tent, folks. The circus is finally over!

After compiling a very respectable 4-1-2 record on the road, the Ducks will return to Honda Center on Sunday to face the Blackhawks, who appeared to have recovered from a bad slump before a deflating loss to Dallas last night. The Hawks will be looking to avenge that loss in LA tomorrow night, and it will be interesting to see how they handle the Carter-ized Kings. But if the Ducks don't allow themselves to get starstruck a la Tampa Bay, Sunday's game will be a great chance for them to build upon their road trip momentum. [Ed. Note: Sounds like Jonathan Toews is out for this trip to the west after suffering an 'upper body injury' and then getting in a minor car accident.]
