Ducks' Frank Vatrano: Finds twine in win
Frank Vatrano scored a goal and added two hits in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Devils.Vatrano's goal at 14:24 of the first period stood as the game-winner. It was also his first tally of the year, as the 31-year-old has had a tough time getting his offense going. That's resulted in him dropping to the fourth line lately, as Vatrano has seen fewer than 13 minutes of ice time in five straight games. The veteran forward is at two points, 23 shots on net, 31 hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 11 appearances. Vatrano's production typically benefits from all-around volume, and that will be hard to accumulate while his usage is limited.

Ducks' Frank Vatrano: Gets on scoresheet Thursday
Frank Vatrano notched an assist, three shots on goal, four hits and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Bruins.The helper was Vatrano's first point through seven games. It's been a tough start to the season for the 31-year-old, as he's been confined to a middle-six role, but his production has fallen off in favor of the Anaheim Ducks' burgeoning young core. In addition to the assist, Vatrano has 16 shots on net, 25 hits, four blocked shots, nine PIM and a minus-7 rating. Unless he can improve on his 13:08 average ice time, it'll be difficult for the veteran forward to record a fourth straight 40-point campaign.
