Ducks Final 20 games and Trade Deadline!

One can see as I do that month of march will be critical for this team to decide it's fate. No matter how we look at it our Ducks MUST not Give Up on themselves and each other. 26-25-10 62pts 4 to 6pts back of final playoff spot whatever happens here or in late March happens for a reason. Our Ducks are going through tough phase of the transition to the next generation who will take up the mental of the Ducks Cause. Will They succeed in my heart I KNOW and all Ducks Fans do this team can make it....For their fate is in their hands to hit the ground running and NOT look back. The One thing makes me is fact it feels like deja vu all over again. Last Year I was humble to fly to Orange County to see the Ducks win 2 out of 3 games. in 2 games that I saw they fought with relentless fury and determination to win in OT.

Difference now is prior to the Trade Deadline talk of Bobby Ryan Trade,Teemu Selanne Trade and others was unthinkable....at times made me think. I often ask WHAT do we get in return IF the Ducks do the unthinkable?. Why i say that is the fact the Ducks Big 3 aka RPG is vital to continuing the legacy of success Ducks have tasted and earned. Sometimes I wonder if the divide between Passionate Ducks Fans and others who call themselves experts were created due to the chaotic first months of 2011-2012 season. However I am no longer concern with this now.....IF Ducks can pull off a miracle by laying it all on the line from here till the end when I see them. I am confident they can Bring it to any team in March.

Then of course there is trade deadline. I have heard the rumors some of the far-fetch others extremely insulting. To me What needs to be done right now is the Ducks Stand Pat and NOT disrupt chemistry they to focus on getting to the Playoffs and there do whatever it takes to GO DEEP. This edition of our Ducks is flawed in the fact All Offense and No Defence mentality is our teams Achilles heel....Weakness as one say. It's true Ducks Defence has been questionable but we forget those like Fowler and Sbisa are young...Learning the Ways of Ducks Hockey that they will one day assume duties of leadership in the future. Will trade deadline help?....Not sure but it comes to a point when you ask veteran players needs to help them Beauchemin was brought over last year to add in the development of the Ducks Youth in Defence Corps. Is it possible for the Ducks to trade again?...I say know. Best they focus on Free agent frenzy then make a panic move...Trade smart and spend wisely. For all that matters I would nothing like then our Ducks to FIGHT TO THE END and give it their all for the Ducks Cause.

Ducks Gutcheck time

Every game is a Must Win for the Ducks! be it now or final game in April our Ducks have to do what is necessary to get the job done in earning a spot in the NHL West. Playoffs is 9 pts away. Can the Ducks do it I beleive they can....Let alone with the flaws they have at Defence Corps and times in Goal. Questions are raised but we know that if our Ducks are to make it then Collective Will is needed to get them towards the objective at hand.

Unfortunaly those who beleive other wise try to use crappy reason to explain why this team is not fairing well. Injuries,too much emphasis on some of the Ducks youth in bottom six is perhaps why Ducks did not do well as we expect them to be. Yet we can't dwell on something that has happen at the begining....What Happens happens for a reason. But we know in order to fix the flaw Ducks need to make some important choices. Must notably how to fix the Defence amidst struggles of Fowler,Sbisa and Sometimes missing key players within Blueline. Those who do not show any faith in the Ducks are "Experts" and "Know-it-All jackassess". To say the Ducks should trade Selanne,Getz or Ryan is a the Most ABSURD,Stupid and foolish plan ever. I rather keep this team intact and NOT let fear creep in.

Sadly those on the Ducks Message Board do not share this. I have seen how rudness of those who feel superior tends to be the most arrogant Pricks. Makes me wonder how the REAL Ducks Fans are but they are liars no more who see Doom and Gloom. Call me Stupid or foolish but I always feel this team against the odds they face Must make most of what they have in the coming weeks. Ducks at the Trade Deadline will have two choices...1. Win most of their games at the Roadtrip and make a minor trade in tweaking the Defence Corps or 2.Stand Pat and not blow up this team....Sadly those on the Message Board don't beleive that and are Full of themselves.

But I know in my heart as you all the Ducks gotta give it their all and Fight to the Bitter end. I know this season has not been what we want But it's important to support them no matter what. Oh one last thing i need to say "Fail for Nail" Slogan it is a Utterly BS!.

NEVER GIVE UP on the Ducks or yourself!

If many of us felt abit of deja vu from time to time each year our Ducks are in a situation not only familiar at times but unfamiliar in the position they are at. Having 2 wins in Nov before that Ducks starting with a 4-1 after games, then a coaching change makes things uncertain yet unpredictable in the coming weeks. As of now What we expected from the Ducks was NOT or something we saw in not only roller coaster but a chaotic season marked by whether or not Ducks tanking a season would be beneficial in getting the top 5 pick in this year's NHL Draft held in Pittsburgh. You know this "Fail for Nail" Slogan is nothing more then absolute BS to me. What is the point in using something to justified downfall of 11-12 season.....Sure Ducks are 8pts out but i rather see then Fight for a SPOT in the Stanley Cup Playoffs then let "Experts assume the worst. Let's be honest bout our Ducks situation.

8pts out of a Playoff spot, 29 games to go doe you Believe?....DO YOU believe in the Ducks and yourself?. Do you believe this team can do it?. I say YES since History that's right HISTORY within our Ducks for the past 19 years in 8 Stanley Cup Playoffs Berths 7 count them SEVEN have been when our team was struggling in the being and turn things around. Case we know is This edition of the Ducks is All Offense No Defence....Sadly they are flawed which we see in the past games from time to time. Suffice to say Consistency is lacking in effort or Depth in the bottom six...Strength in Numbers i have said is necessary and Ducks having alot of talent in the System they need to make something to balance youth with Experience.

So what do we do in the face of a disadvantage. We Do not give up on the Ducks for like life when WE the People be it USA,Finland,Canada,Sweden,Hong Kong and elsewhere face challenges we move forward and not look back. It's one thing to say "All is lost" and expect the worst but it's best We along with the Ducks believe in themselves. Most of the players are young and they are finding their groove. This 8 game winning streak will be a important test for the Ducks and Ducks Cause. One thing that is worst then a Ducks Loss is giving up on a season or Battles that lay ahead. I believe in my hear our Ducks can do it...They can make it to the Playoffs, rather have them battle with Honor and Pride for it then accept defeat!.

Anaheim Ducks Message Board:My Thoughs

10 Years......10 years I have been on Ducks Main Forum. 10 years of Upgrades,change and rise of so called "Experts within Ducks Fanbase. Everything change so good so very bad. It's no wonder that after all these years being banned from making new Posts based on the "Motivational Speech" BS i still linger sometimes i wonder if those "Experts" have so much power and the admin control words of what people like myself have said. It's a sad state of affairs sometimes it has SUCKED the life,passion and fun out of a great place to meet other Ducks Fans. I have been around as long as any have been on that Forum. I have no intentions of being pushed out the door as some have done to my friends and let rudeness display against my words for what it is.....The Main Forum is NOT what it once was. That is a unhappy fact. Something i must live with as others should do.

However being Banned from making Posts and being insinuated that I am a drunk is lowest form of insult by a pair of know it all Gutter-snipes who DO NOT respect others views on the Ducks. I love going there and discussing and talking bout the Ducks...But it seems clearly those PTB:Powers that Be want to impress outsiders more after Ducks won their First Stanley Cup. I admit I am over-passion bout this team and it's part of my life like Hockey itself. Suffice to say I do not let people like those who have a "Holier art Thou" outlook bug me. It;'s no wonder why a friend of mine was harass and it's no wonder who so many of my friends where harass by them.

Are they Ducks Fans you ask?...Yes but the represent part of a Fanbase who assume they know too much. Just because one does not know the rules but love the sport does not mean they are "Not knowledgeable"...It goes without saying all hockey fans including Ducksfans are different in how they see the sport and use terms to express their pride in Ducks and the Ducks Cause.

Thinking Positive is great and speaking with Common Sense is needed. Ducks Fans should agree to disagree not belittle each other as it's done now. Whatever Happens this season should not be look at a failure by all Ducks Fans....Trial by fire for the Youth is perhaps the best way. But to the "Experts" It won't surprise me if they dissect and try their "best" to speak what is the true outlook of what happen in 11-12. For me I remain but I will not BACK DOWN from these Condescending jackasses.
