That places him with some pretty impressive company, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/ducks\/news\/carlsson-named-one-of-the-nhl-s-three-stars-of-the-week\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Nathan MacKinnon, who leads the league with 29 points<\/a>. The second overall selection in the 2023 NHL Draft has been burning it up lately. He has collected five goals and five assists in his last five games. Mackinnon has five goals and seven assists over his previous five contests.<\/p>\n<p>Carlsson, 20, has two power-play goals, two short-handed tallies, as well as three game-winning goals, including one in overtime. No wonder the Ducks are an early-season surprise team. He lines up with veteran <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/k\/kreidch01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\">Chris Kreider<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/t\/terrytr01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\">Troy Terry<\/a>. The trio has combined for 41 goals. <\/p>\n<p>The second young talent, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/g\/gauthcu01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cutter Gauthier<\/a>, 21, has 11 goals and nine assists this season. He has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/m\/mctavma01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Mason McTavish<\/a> and rookie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/s\/sennebe01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Beckett Sennecke<\/a> as linemates. His last five games illustrate why Anaheim has been so successful thus far this season. He has five goals and five assists. He was acquired from the Philadelphia Flyers on January 9, 2024, inexchange for defenseman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/d\/drysdja01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jamie Drysdale<\/a> and a 2025 second-round draft pick.<\/p>\n<p>The third player, who is a rookie, is Beckett Sennecke. At just 19 years old, he has added six goals and five assists in 15 games. <\/p>\n<p>The Veterans Are Scoring Too<\/p>\n<p>It may not be easy to call Troy Terry, 28, a veteran, but he is in his ninth season in the NHL. He has five goals and 14 helpers this season. Over his last five games, he has recorded six assists, demonstrating he is an accomplished playmaker. He is scoring at an average of 0.68 points per game.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1763133110_453_image\" alt=\"https:\/\/img.particlenews.com\/image.php?url=3dgHgz_16TcWLnx00\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\"\/>Nov 6, 2025; Dallas, Texas, USA; Dallas Stars goaltender <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/o\/oettija01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\">Jake Oettinger<\/a> (29) faces a shot from Anaheim Ducks left wing Chris Kreider (20) during the third period at the American Airlines Center. Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p>Chris Kreider, at 34, is no spring chicken, but it seems that with all the youth playing around him, he has found a fountain of youth in his play. In 11 games, he has accumulated nine goals and three assists. He has been playing alongside Carlsson and Terry, so that line has been providing explosive offense. Did the New York Rangers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stadiumrant.com\/grading-the-chris-kreider-trade-to-anaheim\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">lose the trade <\/a>that sent Kreider to the West Coast?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/t\/troubja01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jacob Trouba<\/a>, acquired from the Rangers last December, already has 10 points in 15 games, surpassing his eight points in 53 games last season. It seems that the youth on this team are inspiring the veterans. It creates an ideal blend of youth and experience that has been the key to the Ducks\u2019 success this season.<\/p>\n<p>Joel Quenneville Behind The Bench Cannot Be Overlooked<\/p>\n<p>Say what you will about<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/q\/quennjo01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> Joel Quenneville <\/a>and his storied past\u2026 he is one hell of a coach. Winning three Stanley Cups proves that. He has 980 career wins behind the bench and will certainly surpass 1,000 wins soon.<\/p>\n<p>He knows how to squeeze every ounce of production from his players, and in Anaheim, he has talent oozing from his group. He had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/k\/kanepa01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Patrick Kane<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/t\/toewsjo01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.stadiumrant.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-11-11_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jonathan Toews<\/a> leading the Chicago Blackhawks to three Cups. The way the Ducks are playing, he may be able to add to his Cup total\u2026eventually.<\/p>\n<p>Quenneville knows it\u2019s a long season, and their goal was to have a good start, and they have accomplished that. <\/p>\n<p>End Of My Anaheim Ducks Rant-They Will Meet The Colorado Avalanche Next<\/p>\n<p>The challenge intensifies as the Ducks will face the Avalanche on Veterans\u2019 Day. The Colorado club has 25 points through 16 games, while Anaheim has 23 points in 15 games. The showdown will not make or break the Ducks, but it may demonstrate if they are a true contender for the postseason.<\/p>\n<p>It could be pegged as the MacKinnon vs. Carlsson show, the way these two stars are playing. This could be \u201cTHE\u201d NHL game to see on November 11th. MacKinnon almost has nothing to prove, but you can bet that Carlsson wants to know if he can lead his team to victory. <\/p>\n<p>Attempting to extend their seven-game winning streak, will the rising Ducks be up to the test? <\/p>\n<p>MacKinnon may very well have something to say about that.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stadiumrant.com\/anaheim-ducks-young-stars-producing-results\/\" target=\"_blank\">Anaheim Ducks Young Stars Producing Results<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stadiumrant.com\" target=\"_blank\">Stadium Rant<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Don\u2019t look now, but the Anaheim Ducks are taking the NHL by storm.
