He is nudging the Anaheim Ducks to pick up a Finnish shoot-first-style winger. Thanks, Teemu. Let’s get to it… I was listening to a podcast recently […]

Oilers: Aim Higher

As the Oilers, defensive struggles continue, and Ken Holland works the phones. One name that keeps coming up is Joel Edmundson… oh boy.

Ducks Dominated by Dallas

In a season full of terrible games, the Ducks’ 5-0 loss to the Dallas Stars is up there (or down there) with the worst. The Ducks continued their four-game road trip with a stop in Dallas to face the Stars, who sit at the top of the Central Division with a 14-6-4 (32 points) record. […]

Anaheim Ducks: Who Do You Want To Be Today?

“Destiny is heart, sacrifice, and passion.” A mantra synonymous with Ducks fans as one that brings back memories and warm feelings of nostalgia. A mantra forever associated with the sweetest of victories. A mantra that sadly symbolizes an era long passed. Entering year two of the rebuild, Anaheim saw a fresh new face at the […]

Will Dallas Eakins be fired before the season ends?

Frustrating loss after frustrating loss, Ducks head coach Dalla Eakins has been the center of attention in Anaheim as there is speculation that his job is in jeopardy.
