The Official Anaheim Ducks Thread

[deepdrive]

If we can keep winning, it could be a Detroit, Kings, Chicago, Pittsburgh run. A lot of exciting hockey potential in there.

Woooooo what a great victory! Ducks and Kings one win away from the first playoff freeway faceoff!

I would really like to see Vatanen in game 6. We need someone from the line who is a scoring threat. 

 

I thought Souray did a good job of shooting the puck at Howard.  The D was better today.  Big thing is that they need to clear the puck out of the zone more.  I think Lydman is missed.

Truly blessed to be at the game tonight. I had a bad feeling early on especially after two bs back to back goalie interference calls, but the Ducks stepped up and got it done. I can't wait for game 6. We need to finish this!

Yeah, the crowd was great, too.  Although there was a point when the score was 2-1 Wings that you could hear everyone in the audience biting their nails.  Then Getzlaf scored that goal, and all the momentum started to go more the Ducks' way.  Happy to finally see Etem live in a game, he was all over the place last night.

The crowd was electric. That 2nd period was brutal. Damn Wings fans were starting to get loud, but thank God Getzlaf shut them up. Etem, Cogs, and Winnik are great to watch play right now. They're the most energized and never give up on anything.

[Kenny]

The majority of Wings fans were good.  Respectful of who's building they were in.  But then there was a real prick.  There was an older Ducks fan who jokingly did a thumbs down to a Wings fan, and the Wings fan started to get in the guy's face.  I'm not sure of what was said by either, but that seemed real shitty.  Mostly it was all fun, the Wings fans are mostly good sports, and of course the answer to half the taunts they got was, "How many cups do the Ducks have, and how many do the Wings?"  Even though nobody said anything about cups.  But that's their right to brag about being a fan of a team who plays in a city they don't live in or remotely near.

No lineup changes tonight.  Time to close it out!

[HaloCory22]

Hopefully we come out and attack right from the start. We can't take our foot off the gas for a second. They'll be doing everything to try and force a game 7. Gotta play smart hockey and stay out of the box.

[gotbeer]

Dang so close by Cogs.

[HaloCory22]

Freaking Pavel is ridiculous. Ducks had a few chances but they should still have a lot left in the tank. Not the best period.

[gotbeer]

Hw do you not score there?

[nate]

How the hell did Teemu not score on that?

[gotbeer]

So close by Bonino.  

[gotbeer]

Goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nate]

GOALLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Etem was the catalyst on that again.

[gotbeer]

Keep the pedal to the metal.

[gotbeer]

Damn this is an exciting game.

[gotbeer]

Focus Hiller.  No late goal.

[gotbeer]

Etem should play 40% of the next period.

[HaloCory22]

The kid line is putting on a clinic. This 3rd period is going to be epic. We need to keep up the pace and even step it up a notch. 

[nate]

Ok, lets win this period!

[gotbeer]

The girls skater there are gnar.  They just grabbed those octopi with their hands and took off

[gotbeer]

Damn damn damn.
