Silfverberg’s 2 goals lead Ducks past Canucks 4-1
ANAHEIM, Calif. — The Anaheim Ducks were missing more than just several injured players at the start of the season. Their power play had been all but absent, too.
Not on Thursday night.
Ranked next-to-last in the NHL in power-play efficiency, the Ducks scored three goals with the man advantage to snap a four-game losing streak with a 4-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks.
“It’s been a long wait for our power play to waken,” coach Randy Carlyle said. “Tonight we were more determined to get pucks back and got the puck directed at the net. We were more tenacious, we were hungrier for the puck.
