Numbers for Nerds:
21 = the number of games that make up the well-known winning streak (which shall not be named) that the Ducks hold over Calgary in Anaheim. During that streak, the home team has outscored their visitors by an average margin of 3.76 to 1.9. Although the Ducks have been dominant at the Pond against the Flames, most of the individual games have been close ones; 12 of these 21 victories have been decided by one goal. Game 1 was the most dominating performance of this winning streak, but the runner-up isn't far behind. Daniel Winnik, Bobby Ryan, Sheldon Souray and Ryan Getzlaf all scored while Viktor Fasth earned a 29-save shutout en route to a 4-0 decision back on March 8, 2013. Quite a difference a couple years can make to a roster, right?
