NHL Power Rankings: Week 28

5. Anaheim Ducks


Record: 46-23-13
The Breakdown: Anaheim is a on a hot streak as they enter the first round, and show no signs of slowing down. The Ducks were 11-0-3 in their final 14 games, including an electric overtime victory against the Kings on Sunday. Anaheim will now face the Calgary Flames. The Ducks took the season series against the Flames 4-1. It'll be interesting to see what the Ducks can do with home-ice advantage, especially considering the Ducks had the NHL's third-best home record at 29-8-4. Although Anaheim is one of the top team's defensively, they'll look to pick up their goal production in the playoffs. With 223 goals in the regular season, Anaheim ranked 17th in the league in scoring. These two teams have met twice in the playoffs, with the Ducks winning in both 2006 and 2015. (Getty)
