Ducks Need To Worry About The Future

from Dan Wood of Ducks Blog at the OC Register,
Ducks coach Randy Carlyle sought a “jolt” for the team when he lifted Giguere, but also said both Islanders goals were “stoppable pucks.”
Giguere, who had won his previous four decisions, is 1-5-2 with a 3.68 goals-against average and .876 save percentage since leaving the team a second time and ultimately returning just before Christmas following the death of his father, Claude.
“We didn’t want to go on the break losing that game,” Giguere said. “Personally, I wanted to have a better effort, for sure.”
With only five victories in their past 16 games, the Ducks have fallen into a tie with the Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks for sixth place in the West, but have played more games than both teams, as well as at least two and as many as four more than all seven clubs below them in the standings.
“We have to use the break, take a step back and not worry too much about what has happened, but worry about what’s coming up,” Giguere said. “It’s going to be a good four days for us to do that. I’m the first one who should do that.”
