So many good points here, and as much as I’d like to believe things are going to get fixed with this particular group intact, I don’t think it’s possible. Chances are we’re going to see some moves, and I can’t hide my displeasure with Ryan Whitney. I fear when that guy has the puck.

There are very few bright spots on the roster other than the scoring from the top line, but again, they aren’t playing a complete game either. I thought the same thing about that 3 on 1…funny though, if he had passed it to Getzlaf…it would have meant 1 MORE pass. LOL!

And I mean I was pissed. How can they not play strong defense against a team like Detroit? Damn I have never seen my self fuming as much as I was last night.

Poor Scotty is stuck out there with no help, Wiz is playing so conservative after his suspension that we cant get him to do anything, and then Whitney seems lost on the ice, letting players skate right past him. If Wiz and Whitney dont want to be here, I hope they speak up soon so Murry can find them I new home. Don’t get me wrong, I love Wisniewski, but he can’t keep playing with a stick up his ass.

On the other hand, Jiggy showed us all that he does in fact need to be the starting goaltender. His play against Columbus (You have Nashville in you post btw!) was stellar, that is the Big #35 I fell in love with as a young kid. He kept the Ducks in that game all the way to the shootout, which lets face it, he has never been too good at.

When Hiller let Detroit squeak in #5, 6, in last nights game, my heart sank, and I knew this kid did in fact need to sit a few out. He needs to regain his composure and work with the goalie coach for a couple of weeks to get his game back.

With all this talent, its so hard to watch them fall game after game. I think Loops and Koivu are doing wonders for this team, even if it cant really be seen. All loops needs to do is get his accuracy above oh I dont know.. 3% and we have another great goal scorer on the second line. As for Selanne, well, he needs a break for a bit, sadly he can’t get it. I think we will see this line get back up to where its was and maybe even a bit more, because if we can see the missing chemistry between these three, then they have to know its there. Oh and, who is helping the guys, be it defensive or Offensive, with their puck handling and passing. Aside from Koivu, Marchant, and Getzlaf, our passing is atrocious. Let alone keeping the damn puck on the stick. Turnovers are getting out of hand, and its costing us games.

Which brings me to my next gripe. WHY THE FUCK… pardon my french, didn’t Bobby Ryan pass the puck on the Damned 3 on 1 last night???????!!?!? A pass to either Getzlaf or back to Perry and BOOM score, and boom lead. That is the first time I have ever been pissed at the kid. SERIOUSLY gahhhhh!!! A puck hog is the last thing this team needs right now, thus Getzlaf stepping up and passing. Thats a team leader right there.

So all in all, loooooooooots to work on. Jiggy needs to take his net back, and Koivu and Carter need to heal.. like two games ago.

GO DUCKS!!!
