Ducks Return Home Seeking To Halt Skid Against Mammoth

Coach Joel Quenneville blamed costly penalties as Utah arrives with a perfect penalty kill despite a prolonged power-play drought.

Overview

  • Anaheim dropped all three games on its road trip by a 12-4 aggregate, finishing with its first shutout of the season in a 2-0 loss at Minnesota.
  • The Ducks are 11-6-1 overall and 5-1-0 at Honda Center, with Monday’s game the first meeting of the season between the teams.
  • Quenneville said penalties repeatedly killed momentum in Minnesota after seven infractions, adding that the Ducks “got what we deserved.”
  • Utah is 10-7-1 after just two wins in its past eight games, most recently falling 3-2 in overtime to the Islanders.
  • The Mammoth’s power play is 0-for-17 over eight games while their penalty kill is 18-for-18, and Logan Cooley has two points with no goals in seven games since signing an $80 million extension.
