Ducks and Red Wings Going to Game 7
In a series between the Ducks and Red Wings that is an evenly matched as it could be, is it any surprise this one is going to a game seven to decide it all?
Both Anaheim and Detroit have been taking turns winning games in the series that has already seen four overtime games out of six. If game seven goes to OT, it won't be a shocker. Anaheim has won games one, three...
Brendan Smith Victimized by Fluky Bounce on Own Goal: Video
Kyle Quincey made the mistakes and Brendan Smith paid. The Anaheim Ducks’ first goal on Friday night in Game 6 came courtesy of a couple of Wings’ errors.
The biggest came at center ice, where Quincey fired a pass to no one in particular, allowing the Ducks to counter attack. Kyle Palmieri then blew past Quincey into the Wings’ zone and fired a shot that ricocheted off the...
NHL Playoff Observations -- Wednesday
Read my lips, Dion Phaneuf – hit the guy if you’re going to pinch. Better yet, DO NOT PINCH. He’s a decent player, but a crappy decision maker. Yikes.
David Krejci is money in the bank in the postseason. His hattie was just his third, three-point effort in his last four games. Ten points in four games. Wow.
Breaking news, Toronto fans. Elisa Cuthbert...

Niklas Kronwall levels Kyle Palmieri with center ice hit
About 13 minutes into the first period of game four of the Anaheim Ducks-Detroit Red Wings 1st round playoff series, Wings defenseman Niklas Kronwall was up to his old tricks. Kronwall caught Ducks forward Kyle Palmieri with his head down in the neutral zone and “Kronwalled” him. The hit was a 100% legal hit and no penalty was called. Kronwall does a great job of leading...
YOU GOT KRONWALLED: You can add Kyle Palmieri to the list (VIDEO)
Apparently Kyle Palmieri forgot to keep his head up when on the ice with Niklas Kronwall…
Not to mention Kronwall put the Eastern Conference on notice in tonight’s Game 4, this is what you have to look forward to next season.
Then the JLA crowd once again had that college atmosphere chanting “YOU GOT KRONWALLED!”
Ahhh.. there’s nothing like it!
THAT'S GOTTA HURT
Niklas Kronwall levels Kyle Palmieri
Niklas Kronwall sent a jolt through a rowdy Joe Louis Arena crowd with one of his trademark hits on the Anaheim Ducks’ Kyle Palmieri. About 13 minutes into the first period of the Detroit Red Wings’ 3-2 overtime victory, Kronwall stepped up and leveled Palmieri with a legal hit along the boards. No penalty was called — a welcome sight after Justin Abdelkader was given a five...
Nik Kronwall Kronwalls Ducks’ Kyle Palmieri (VIDEO)
Red Wings defenseman Nik Kronwall rudely welcomed the Ducks’ Kyle Palmieri back to Detroit Monday evening during Game 4 of the Western Conference quarterfinal. Palmieri, now 22, played for the U.S. National Development Team from 2007-2009, so he’s probably pretty familiar with the city. Just to make sure, Kronwall put him on his backside to make sure.
The proper term for...
Detroit Red Wings shock Anaheim Ducks in OT, even series
The Detroit Red Wings appeared to be cruising to evening up their series with the Anaheim Ducks. Then the Ducks seized momentum by scoring three unanswered goals to turn a 4-1 deficit into a 4-4 tie with 2:22 remaining in the third to send the Honda Center into a frenzy. That lasted until Gustav Nyquist took a feed from Valtteri Filppula, and fired a one-timer past Jonas...
Video: Detroit Red Wings Gustav Nyquist scores the game winner
The Detroit Redwings Gustav Nyquist will go down as the guy who shot the game-winning goal against Anaheim on Thursday night in OT.
The power-play was spurred on by a beautiful toe-drag by Valtteri Flippula who set up the shot.
The 5-4 victory was somewhat ugly for the Red Wings who took Game 2 of their quarterfinal series.
They blew a three-goal third period lead to set up what...
Red Wings get even in Anaheim
The Red Wings saved their series Thursday night in Anaheim (technically Friday morning in Detroit).
It'll go down in the books as an overtime win, but it was looking like an unmitigated disaster for the Wings, who watched their 4-1 lead evaporate in a 12-minute span in the third period.
First, Ryan Getzlaf scored to cut the lead to 4-2, then less than five minutes later Kyle...
Red Wings get even in Anaheim
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -- Gustav Nyquist's power-play goal at 1:21 of overtime after the Red Wings blew a three-goal lead in the third period gave Detroit a 5-4 victory over the Anaheim Ducks to even their playoff series Thursday night.
Johan Franzen scored two goals and Damien Brunner had his first Stanley Cup playoff goal and two assists for the Red Wings, who survived a third...

Anaheim Ends Oilers Season
Anaheim finally figured out how to end a four game losing skid by defeating Edmonton 3-1 on Sunday. It was part one of a two part series with the Oilers that will conclude on Monday.
The Ducks still had to come back from behind, as the Oilers scored first. Taylor Hall had the only goal for Edmonton just one minute into the game. Not a great way to start, but Anaheim...
Ducks 3, Oilers 1
Cam Fowler, Kyle Palmieri and Corey Perry scored to help put the Anaheim Ducks on the brink of clinching the Pacific Division with a 3-1 victory over the Edmonton Oilers in Sunday night.
The Ducks could have clinched the division title if the Los Angeles Kings lost to Dallas in regulation, but that game went to overtime. Anaheim can also seal it with another win over the Oilers...
HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?
Ducks center scores bizarre goal
Deadlocked at 1-1 in the third period, the strangest goal of the year was scored by Anaheim Ducks forward David Steckel. The puck was shot in by Sheldon Souray, then Kyle Palmieri tried to tuck it in but was poke-checked, and then David Steckel shot the puck and it was stopped by Columbus Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobrovsky. Unfortunately for Bobrovsky, the puck went straight...
Ducks Best Kings in Shootout 4-3
When the Ducks and Kings get together, it never disappoints. Good, bad, so-so, both teams find the necessary energy and enthusiasm (not to mention a certain level of hate) to make the games worth watching.
The 4-3 shootout win by the Ducks on Sunday was no exception.
"We knew it was going to be an emotional game out there," said Corey Perry. "They’ve been...
No Current Cap Issues In Anaheim
from Eric Stephens of Ducks Blog,
They'll need to look at retaining would-be unrestricted free agents Ben Lovejoy and David Steckel but both wouldn't cost too much. Kyle Palmieri is restricted and shouldn't price the Ducks out of their budget.
If anything, Toni Lydman, who's making $3 million this season, figures to be the odd man out. Moving Luca Sbisa isn...
Ducks enjoying quietly dominant start
GLENDALE, Ariz. If you polled NHL fans for the biggest storylines this season, the Anaheim Ducks 14-3-1 start would barely register a blip.
Between the lockout-shortened schedule, the Chicago Blackhawks historic run, Ryan OReillys contract holdout, Lindy Ruffs firing, the Coyotes continued ownership saga and realignment talks, the Ducks are, well, flying under the radar.
I dont...
Steve Palumbo: Ducks Game Day: Perry and Getzlaf Keep Ducks Rolling
The Ducks have to be feeling good about themselves after having torched the Nashville Predators two nights ago. Regardless if the Preds were tired or not, the Ducks bounced back strongly from a disappointing loss to their freeway foes, the Kings.
The line of Kyle Palmieri, Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry were the story of the game. The trio combined for nine points, including KP...
Wild look to cool off streaking Ducks
As good as the Anaheim Ducks have been at home lately, the last thing the Minnesota Wild need is Kyle Palmieri to get going offensively.
Palmieri will try to build off his first NHL hat trick and help the Ducks extend their longest home win streak in three years on Friday night when they host the Wild, who hope they've ended their struggles on the road.
After its season-high...
