Ducks Set to Clash with Stars at American Airlines Center

As the Anaheim Ducks prepare to face off against the Dallas Stars at the American Airlines Center, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain the momentum from their recent victory.

In their last game against the Seattle Kraken, despite a loss with a final score of 3-2, there were positive takeaways. The Ducks demonstrated strong faceoff capabilities, winning 62 percent of them. However, they struggled on power plays and will need to capitalize on these opportunities against Dallas.


The previous game saw a more challenging scenario where the Calgary Flames shut out the Ducks 3-0. Anaheim's penalty kill was effective as they did not allow any goals during shorthanded situations but failed to convert on four power play chances themselves.


However, looking back two games prior provides some optimism for Ducks fans. A solid win over Detroit Red Wings with a score of 4-3 showcased an impressive shooting percentage of 18 percent and successful penalty kills despite being outnumbered in faceoffs.


The upcoming match is crucial for Anaheim as they aim to build consistency and climb up in standings. The American Airlines Center is known for its energetic atmosphere which could pose an additional challenge for the visiting team.


Fans can catch all the action from this exciting matchup scheduled on January 26th at 1:00 AM GMT (January 25th at 5:00 PM PST). The game will be broadcasted nationally on ESPN+ and locally on BSSC channel 693 and BSSD channel 694.
