The Official Anaheim Ducks '13-'14 thread

[halobob]

I like to compare them to the Rays, both very well fun franchises.

I'm a Kings fan, but a hockey fan first; THAT was an incredible send-off!  Teemu is worthy of all the praise.  I can't think of a classier player in the game.

ESPN is not even trying to cover hockey...

"And what of the Anaheim Ducks, who once again will enter the postseason as the second seed in the Western Conference and are exponentially better than they were a year ago, but who will face the winner of the Sharks-Kings series in the second round of the California cage-death match, assuming they don't get knocked off by the surging Minnesota Wild?"

...also, Andersen is the starter for game one (per eric stephens).

[HaloCory22]

LOL. Awesome job, ESPN...

 

 

Stoked Andersen is getting the start tonight. I can't wait to head over there.

I (probably Nate too) will be hoping for no 3OT games at Honda Center. I don't want to be up until 3am.

Side these games going til 1AM are the worst

That's your fault, Nate. Should have stayed in CA

[DB24]

Let's go Ducks!

 

If they can limit the damage of the Benn/Seguin line I think they will be fine.

 

I expect to see a different Selanne as well 

[Gavin]

Strange. Burnside is usually pretty good when it comes to hockey writing.

Anyway I'll be there tonight. I can't freaking wait! I've been counting down since the morning.

You guys aren't going to the Angels game instead?

[HaloCory22]

I feel bad for the poor bastards going to Angel Stadium tonight. Also, you a-holes better get out of my way. I will not miss puck drop!

[gotbeer]

Pretty breakaway goal by Palms.

[Spencer]

Another nice goal.

Freddie lookin fine

[Spencer]

Fvck you Cory, and fvck everybody who is at this game. Lucky bastards

[gotbeer]

Nice first period.

[nate]

Epic first period.  Wish I could be there.

[nate]

This game is so awesome.

 

Tell me you all saw this:

 

[gotbeer]

Got screwed by the refs.  But still a lead.  Hang on there boys.

[gotbeer]

Wow, how did that miss?

[gotbeer]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[tennischmp]

Damn it. This game should never have become this close. Hope Getzlaf is OK.

[disarcina]

Nice win tonight -- dominating first period into the second -- but then the third --- what happened???

 

I, like most S. Cal folks I think, am rooting for a DUCKS-KINGS second round series.

Actually was the second.  Ducks got caught with too many men on the ice, on a BS call.  So went 2 men short and the Stars converted on both.  

[halobob]

Man, talk about going from a relaxed, happy drunk to a completely nervous wreck for the last few minutes of the game.  Happy the Ducks came away with the W.

Definitely rooting for a Ducks/Kings second round series, it's about damn time they meet in the post season.
