Promising Western Conference Teams Struggles Have All Signs of Coach Being Fired
The Anaheim Ducks were expected to be a relatively good team this season with a whole bunch of young talent on the roster.
Things have not been as good as the organization had hoped for to this point in the young season.
The Ducks are currently 1-3-1 to start the year, but maybe the thought of them being good was misread by management.
The team was just 31-37-14 last season, so it seems the players may not be making the jump that they had hoped for so far this season.
Regardless, this team definitely has talent, so some of the blame does need to get placed on head coach, Dallas Eakins.
Eakins has been with the team since 2019, but has a record of 78-103-33. They have been in plenty of games, but just have not been able to finish.
With his 3-straight losing seasons and 1-3-1 start to this year, Anaheim may be looking to make a change soon as management has high hopes for this young team.
