The 2009–10 Anaheim Ducks season was the 17th season of operation (16th season of play) for the National Hockey League franchise. The Ducks first game of the season was held at home, on October 3, 2009, against the Sharks. The season began with high hopes, but ended with disappointment for its fans and players, as the Ducks failed to make the playoffs for the first time since 2003–04.

2009 Offseason [edit]

The Ducks made a major trade at the Entry Draft on June 26, 2009, trading Chris Pronger and Ryan Dingle to the Philadelphia Flyers for Joffrey Lupul, Luca Sbisa, two first-round draft picks and a conditional third-round pick. The Ducks then traded the Flyers' first-round pick for a later first-round pick and a second-round pick. The trades were the first in a series of 16 trades made by the Ducks in the 2009–10 season. The club signed former Montreal Canadiens captain Saku Koivu as a free agent, while Francois Beauchemin and Rob Niedermayer left the Ducks for other teams.

Regular season [edit]

The Ducks started the season poorly, playing under .500 for the first month. The team's top goalie, J. S. Giguere struggled, not winning a game until November 23. The Ducks increasingly played Jonas Hiller and the club reached the .500 mark in January. The team was not able to catch up in the standings despite improved play in the second half. Nearing the trade deadline, manager Bob Murray traded Giguere to the Toronto Maple Leafs, and made several trades at the deadline.
