Mason McTavish scores twice for the second straight game but goalie John Gibson leaves with an injury in the Ducks' 5-2 win over the Nashville Predators.

McTavish is capable of more, but they’ve got to put him in the best position to have success. The Ducks do mete out ice time among their forwards more evenly than other teams and while McTavish is averaging 16:24, that ranks seventh.

Anaheim Ducks coach Greg Cronin labeled him a "third-line guy." His teammates nicknamed him "Iron Sights" for the frequency with which he was hitting a post or crossbar.

Mason McTavish and a healthy Trevor Zegras have augmented an attack that had been leaning heavily on Troy Terry and Frank Vatrano, but they need more production from Carlsson.
