The goalie hug on Saturday night in Vancouver was a little extra special.

The Ducks played several games this week, and they mainly went as expected and within the observer’s diminished expectations. Losing Troy Terry hasn’t helped much, either. Anaheim lost to Vegas 7-2, Buffalo 7-3, and the Los Angeles Kings 6-3. However, an incident in the Kings game concerned me and made me wonder, what happened to […]
