Agreed. Phoenix won twice and Anaheim only once, even though both teams got 4 points out of this miniplayoff series. I know it's a bit different thing in the real playoffs when the best team out of 7 games proceeds but still. There are no easy opponents in the playoffs and I can see Phoenix going atleast to 2nd round.
Anyway, good to see the Ducks win this one and great to see Hiller getting a shutout. I was actually wondering just yesterday, when does one our goalies get one and now Hiller did. Should do wonders to his confidence. I would like to see him starting against Calgary and if he plays well, let him start the next one too if he's not too tired. He should be rewarded even though last game wasn't so hard.
Looking at the schedule the Ducks don't get a long break until April 11th when they finally have 2 days off and then a 3 game break after 13th day. A lot of tough opponents to be played against, good thing is that the Ducks play a lot of home games.
