The Anaheim Ducks faced the Buffalo Sabres, the NHL’s top team, before embarking on a road trip. The Ducks, coming off a 4-1 win over the Utah Mammoth, had a three-point lead in the Pacific Division. Despite a competitive game where they recorded more shots on goal, the Ducks struggled defensively, with key players like Jackson LaCombe performing well. The Ducks will next play the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday as they continue their Canadian road trip.
