Ducks’ Garbutt proving to be incredible good-luck charm

Good luck doesn't come from a four-leafed clover or a rabbit's foot; it comes from Ryan Garbutt.

The Anaheim Ducks topped the Edmonton Oilers 2-1 Monday night, and in doing so improved on Garbutt's incredible winning record this season.

As Sportsnet's John Shannon notes, Garbutt - who began the season with the Chicago Blackhawks - helped the team go 12-0-0 in his final 12 games before being traded to the Ducks on Jan. 23. Since joining his new club, Garbutt has gone 22-5-3.

That means Garbutt's gone 34-5-3 in his last 42 games, a winning percentage of 80.95. To put that in perspective, the Washington Capitals lead all teams in that category at 75.3 percent.

Note to general managers: get yourself a Ryan Garbutt.
