What it means to be Ducksfan

Alot of people can express their loyality to the team in many different ways. some never miss a game,Others choose to record accomplishments of the team and Players in generals. Read any related Article involving Ducks to listening via radio online. There are times i feel some are taking their devotion to the Ducks for granted. I don't care what people say bout our team and us as fans of this great sport. To be a Ducksfan is to stay with this team is seeing not only history but moments that last a lifetime. Be it the Stanley Cup Championship 3 years ago or the First Playoff berth and First Stanley Cup Finals appearance. We should never EVER let anyone tell us who we are and what this team can do.

Watching a Game,Draft and hearing news of Ducks signing a important player is something that brings Ducks Pride to many be it Orange County to all the way to Nova Scotia and Finland. Ducksfans like Anaheim Ducks itself ar Unique in their own way.

Passion of the Ducks

Here I am as Ducks fan Hardcore,Die-hard to the bone.....if One thing that makes me what i am is knowing my deep beleif in the team i follow as child. Knowing each moment is history in making. Be it Good or bad,ugly through thick and thin sometimes it's knowing Ducks as a whole will come out on top or Battle to he Bitter end. Always even though this team came short i truly in my heart beleive better Days are ahead. Yet those new to Duck Cause do not know what it means to feel the backlash and negativitly of being one who follows this unique team and a Unique Place such as Orange County. Often it borders on a strong zeal sometimes fanatic, but i never ever will let anyone or ANYTHING bring me down or my passion for Ducks.

Yes i have at times bring alot of passion on Ducks Message Board, too much but it never stops me from speaking what is on my mind and what i feel. No Apolgois express my zeal yet it annoys others, one thing is certain is seeing a team mock by many during first few years go from sucessful Expanison team to One of greatness. Knowing full well what is acceptable and what is not. I definitly will not back down and i will Post what i feel is right nothing more nothing less. If some Know-it-alls call me out i can tell them to Go to HELL. But it's always important to know Ducksfans are everywhere from Die-hards like me Newbies we are Community that we agree to disagree no more no less.

Ducks Future and beyond

Memorial Cup This week marks pinnacle of what is Future of Hockey,NHL and More. What is notice could be one of the Ducks Prospects Nicolas Deschamps may have a chance to play in the game. Of course many of us know Logan MacMillan's tenure during last year's MemCup tourney with Oceanic. Prospects within Ducks system, Timo Pielmeier,Peter Holland,Jake Gardiner,Josh Brittian,Logan MacMillan,Mark Mitera and Kyle Palmeri and others prove our future is bright and strong in years to come.

What really makes me happy is seeing the number of Californians at the Draft. Since coming to SoCal to see my Anaheim Ducks and getting the feel of positive atmosphere was worth something knowing Anaheim is a sucessful Non-tradtional Hockey Market and hockey growing among Orange County Comunnities. Summer will be a occasion for our team to restruture and regroup.......The need is now what happen last season happens for a reason which is unacceptable. Ducks will Rise and they will do it come 10-11 by leaving a trail of fear for other 29 NHL Teams.

Remebering the past

Be it Good or Bad,Positive or Negative....Success and lost. Nothing can be said then our Ducks history is unique in it's own way. Those on the Ducks message board some who will remain nameless is taking this team for granted. I believe the Ducks future rests in Destiny that goes beyond one Stanley Cup Championship, to say many within Ducks Nation is focusing too much on the past is foolish let alone generalized. The Positive Sucess Ducks have achieve is something we Ducksfans should cherish and appericate. Stanley Cup Championship,Two Western Conference Titles,Pacific Divison Crown,Two Stanley Cup Finals Appearances,Three Western Conference Finals Appearances and 7 Stanley Cup Playoff Berths. Plus holding most wins by a Expansion Team*33wins* in NHL History.

What Ducks have done is prove Anaheim Orange County is a successful Non-traditional Market for Hockey to exist in O.C. Moving forward is something all Ducksfans should do but remembering accomplishments is what keeps the memory going. Those who deny Day of Great Victory*June6th 2007* and Great win this team achieve should not be look as part of a past but something we remember in our hearts.

There those in Ducks Message Board at times be know-it-alls that at times are jerks. Often correcting and insulting some. What can i say Ducksfans are community that disagree to agree at times try to one up on each other. But sooner later i may have to stand on my convictions and speak on what i feel is wrong with some of the Ducks Poster. However DuckPride and Duck Cause is strong and our team will rise Once more.
