Following their 5-3 win against the Colorado Avalanche Saturday in Denver, the Anaheim Ducks hopped on a plane for Washington, D.C.
The 1,600-mile trip was made necessary due to a snowstorm that blanketed the Northeast on Jan. 22 and pushed the Ducks' game against Capitals to Sunday (7:30 p.m. ET; NHLN, SN360, SN, PRIME, CSN-DC,). Thanks to the Winnipeg Jets, it could be a very rewarding trip for the Ducks.
