Update: The Ducks have lost four of their last five. In the last two defeats, they have failed to score a goal without the help of Ryan Getzlaf, who has at least one point in eight consecutive games. The goals don’t figure to come easily against Minnesota. Goalie Niklas Backstrom has given up 2.16 goals a game, third best among the league’s starters.
