The Anaheim Ducks entered the 2024-25 NHL season with cautious optimism. With a blend of promising young talent and veteran leadership, there was hope this season would mark a step forward in their rebuild.

The Ducks are currently dead-last in the league in goals scored (123) and goals-per-game (2.47). They sit middle of the pack in goals against, but most of that has been due to stellar goaltending from John Gibson and Lukáš Dostál, who are both top-5 in GSAx per 60. Dostál is third in GSAx (17.0) while Gibson is sixth (14.0).

McTavish is capable of more, but they’ve got to put him in the best position to have success. The Ducks do mete out ice time among their forwards more evenly than other teams and while McTavish is averaging 16:24, that ranks seventh.
