Anaheim takes a seven-game winning streak and the league's second-best record on the road against NHL-best Colorado Avalanche in a nationally televised clash Tuesday.

When the Avalanche defeated New Jersey 8-4 at Ball Arena, they ended an eight-game Devils winning streak. When Tampa Bay was in town last week, Colorado put an end to five straight wins for the Lightning.

The Anaheim Ducks’ rebuild was meant to take time, but seven straight wins and a showdown with Nathan MacKinnon and the league leading Colorado Avalanche could expose whether this surge is for real.

Paul Maurice could see it, as can many caught by surprise by the Anaheim Ducks this season. Before his Florida Panthers took on the Ducks for a second time in a seven-day span last week, Maurice laid out his scouting report of an Anaheim team that is averaging a league-best 4.

The altitude will be another challenge during a stretch in which the Ducks, who lead the NHL in goals per game, have passed nearly every test.

James Duthie is joined by TSN Hockey Insiders Pierre LeBrun and Darren Dreger to discuss the growing concerns about the Olympic hockey venue, the Anaheim Ducks’ impressive start to the year, Team USA’s Olympic roster and more.

The Ducks (7-3-1) look for their fourth-straight win as they take on the reigning Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers (6-5-1) tonight at Honda Center. Puck drop is set for 7 p.m. PT and will air on Victory+ and KCOP-13.

The Ducks are off to their best start in 11 years, thanks in no small part to Trouba, who looks like he's turning back the clock in Anaheim.

Thanks to a seven-year playoff drought entering this season the Anaheim Ducks have not really been on the NHL's league-wide radar lately. They should be now.
