The last Ducks loss was against the Oilers. They have played them well and won the season series.
What breaks did they get in beating the Sharks?

The turning point in that series was late in the 2nd period of game 5 when with 1 second left in a Oilers PP Burns inexplicably basically pitch forks the puck from behind the net 30 feet over the glass. It was so bad that it looked like he was doing it intentionally. One of the worst plays I've seen by a defensemen this season. The oil had nothing going on at that point and he put them on another PP which the Oil scored on to make it 3-2 going into the 3rd and giving them life. Had he not made that bone head play the Sharks go home up 3-2 in the series.
