Las Vegas: Beset by injuries earlier this season, the Anaheim Ducks are certainly glad to be back at full strength.
Jakob Silfverberg and Ryan Getzlaf scored to lead Anaheim over the Vegas Golden Knights 2-0 in their Pacific Division showdown Monday night.
“The last half of the season we’ve had our full team, and we’ve been picking up some steam these last couple of games,” Silfverberg said. “This road trip, at least, we’ve been playing some pretty good hockey. Tonight, we played one of the best teams in the league and I think we played them really solid defensively. We didn’t give them a lot of chances. This is the type of hockey we want to play and hopefully we continue doing it.”
Anaheim regained sole possession of third place in the division, two points ahead of Los Angeles and Calgary. The Ducks are a point behind second-place San Jose.
The Ducks improved to 15-11-7 on the road and have won four of their last five away from home.
