Veteran John Carlson delivered a monster 14-point surge in just 16 games, proving his value—and the Ducks’ desire to bring him back. Meanwhile, Drew Helleson’s struggles with possession and offense make his future murky. Captain Radko Gudas, hampered by injuries and suspensions, showed flashes but may be nearing the end of his Ducks tenure. Rising star Jackson LaCombe led all defensemen in playoff scoring with 58 points, though puck control remains a work in progress. Pavel Mintyukov and Ian Moore showed promise but need more consistency. And Jacob Trouba? His 35-point season was his best offensively in years, and he’s clearly happy in Anaheim—making him a prime candidate to stay as the Ducks build for the future.
