Schultz weighs his options with Ducks

ANAHEIM, Calif. If conventional wisdom was in charge, Justin Schultz's plane would be on final approach to John Wayne Airport at this moment, his hockey bag and expectations for a lengthy NHL hockey career in tow. Patting each other on the back for selecting such a high-ceilinged NHL prospect with a 2008 second round pick under then-general manager Brian Burke, current GM Bob...

Ducks G Hiller plays every game for 2 months

(Eds: With AP Photos.) By GREG BEACHAM AP Sports Writer Jonas Hiller watched the Anaheim Ducks' playoff chase from the stands instead of the crease last spring, sidelined by a mystery ailment that put his NHL career in doubt. ''It isn't very fun not to be on the ice,'' he said. ''I hate it.'' That's why the Swiss goalie isn't missing...

Ducks Shut Out Wings; Selanne at 1400

The Ducks and the Red Wings have met many times, in the regular and post season.  While there have been plenty of memorable moments in games between these two teams, there were a couple new ones to add to the list.A 4-0 shutout was particularly notable because the Ducks have never shut out Detroit at home.  They have done it once before, in Detroit.  That was in 1997.  Even sweeter...

Selanne records 1,400th career point, 660th goal

Teemu Selanne recorded his 1,400th career point by igniting a three-goal outburst in the second period and Kyle Palmieri registered his first career two-goal game as the host Anaheim Ducks cruised to a 4-0 win over the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday.

Steve Palumbo: Kyle Palmieri, Jonas Hiller and the Ducks Shut Down Motown + Etem Update

One Down.....11 to go.... The Ducks gave the fans at Honda Center a glimpse into the future last night when rookie Kyle Palmieri stole the show by scoring not one, but two highlight reel goals. Anaheim played a desperate and relentless style of hockey in Wednesday nights 4-0 whitewash of the visiting Detroit Red Wings. It was the first time the Ducks have held Detroit scoreless...

Steve Palumbo: Ducks Come Out Flat in Loss to that Other Team + My Musings

The Anaheim Ducks must have left all their good mojo from Wednesday's victory back in the locker room because when they came out for the first period of last nights game against the Los Angeles Kings they fell flatter than Dustin Penner after a big 'ol plate of flapjacks. The Kings controlled the game from the outset by scoring three first period goals but none were...

Kings use 3-goal 1st period to beat Ducks

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -- Alec Martinez, Anze Kopitar and Justin Williams scored first-period goals, and the Los Angeles Kings kept pace in the Western Conference playoff picture with a 4-2 victory over the fading Anaheim Ducks on Friday night.

Red Wings-Ducks quick take: the low point of the season, right here, right now

In the words of Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg, “I know this music.” And the music Mr. Zorg speaks of in The Fifth Element best represents the Red Wings’ 4-0 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday, representing the Wings’ fifth loss in seven March games: It’s the sound of senseless, useless and ultimately futile combat in the film, and for the Red Wings, who have gone 3-8...

Anaheim Ducks Must Be Flawless the Rest of the Way

AP Photo By Steve Palumbo (@StevePalumboNHL) The Anaheim Ducks have put themselves in a rather unusual predicament by both winning and losing. Before I confuse you too much, please allow me to explain. The Ducks have a dozen games left to try to do the improbable and nearly downright impossible. On the heels of a three-game losing streak, the Ducks must now win out. That’s right...

Game 71: Columbus Blue Jackets Thoughts

Before the start of every season, my ticket holder buddies and I get together to split up our pack of Canucks tickets. Everyone has their favorite teams they want to watch so the first few rounds of picks go fast and then you get stuck with the tickets no one wants. Sometimes the games picked last end up being good games to watch (Carolina a few years ago after that long losing streak...

Most Successful Deadline Traded Player

The NHL trade deadline occurred on the 27th of February.  That is barely half a month ago.  It was a day that was remarkable for the lack of big deals.  I thought the biggest deal of the deadline period was the Jeff Carter deal.  It is too early to make any final decisions about the deadline deals but some early returns are in.  The most successful player who was dealt so far...
