Ducks win 4th straight Pacific title, clinch Jennings Trophy
Started from the bottom, now they're here. (Sorry.)
The Anaheim Ducks are Pacific Division champions. Again. The club locked up its fourth straight division crown - and fifth in franchise history - after beating the Washington Capitals 2-0 on Sunday. The Ducks finish with 103 points to the Los Angeles Kings' 102, a remarkable turn of events considering Anaheim's early-season struggles.
Ducks went 45-18-9 after starting the season 1-7-2.
