Ducks Arising!

If anyone ask me before the 48 game sprint began how well the Ducks will do I reply with this "Ducks will do well" or "Wait and See". What we see in this team, this edition of our Anaheim Ducks is energy and motivation......these are key to a team not only transition but determine to prove doubters wrong. What surprise me is the efforts of two of the newest Ducks who in short a short span of time is leaving a mark that has catch the eye of all Ducks Fans from OC to Finland and elsewhere. Dan Winnik a Player sign from San Jose who started 12-13 season with 2 or more goals and Viktor Fasth 30 years old and a rookie with Swedish League experience is 8-0-0. Before the season began I never would have though both of them would contribute in getting our Ducks to where they are now. First Place in Pacific Division and 2nd overall in the NHL West. Wins against our Enemies be it Vancouver,LA,San Jose,Calgary,Detroit and Nashville has left us a result to be proud of. 12-2-1 25pts speaks alot in what they had accomplished in 15 games. Yet this season is far from over with so much games left and Smiles beaming everywhere it all comes down to our Ducks moving forward with purpose. the Depth they show gives us Strength in Numbers in offense and Defense....Unity is very clear now. Whether if those who earn 2assists during this short season like Emerson Etem to a player who earn his first NHL Goal as Duck in Patrick Maroon. Battles our Ducks face will have all players besides Fasth and Winnik contributing more to the Ducks Cause. Need is greater for all players including those called up in effort to move our team forward. So Far Ducks Fans within Ducks Nation especially those in O.C are noticing it well with the wins mounting and a Goalie from Sweden going 8-0. It's No Surprise that news of Fasth signing a two year extension gives the team a 1-2 Goaltending tandem not since Giguere/Bryz days. To think there is a Goalie Controversy is abit of a presumption due in part in Ducks History Goalie 1A and 1B has contributed to sucess and honor it bestow on our team's name and Ducks Nation. I cannot forget a good news of return of Former Ducks GM Brian Burke. His return to Part-Time Scout I hope will help in this year's draft...however time he has I hope it will benefit the team in such a short way. This week off has provide many of us to reflect and look forward to next year's back to back games.....No Matter what happens we cannot forget the games ahead will be tough and the battles will be hard. However Let's not give up nor in to the notion of what sports pundits have said....Know this true and know it well. Many times in our team's history our Ducks have prove them wrong. I can make a list but I know all of you be it on Ducks Message Board,Facebook or twitter know this team is capable of overcoming Adversity no more No less. For now Let us enjoy this season.....ANAHEIM DUCKS 4EVER!. DuckPride 4ever MooseDuck
