Ducks are flying high so far. Flying V!
As a fan of the ducks I am so happy about their playoff run!!!
Vamos Patos! 🦆🍊
Good video!

I gotta say it was apparent from Lacombe’s first few games that he had a strong potential to be a future Norris trophy candidate.
Arguably our best player, glad he’s getting the recognition he deserves.
Wow! The Oilers
I've said all year that we'll make the playoffs, but I'd be gleeful if we made it to the second round!
Knocking off the b2b conference champs makes it that much sweeter, and my money's on the Ducks defeating Vegas.
So proud of our team!
That said, Colorado is a freight train that no one's going to stop.
Do one on the poor state of the Leafs please. Never won the cup since 1968.
Thank you from an Anaheim resident and fan.
I have Anaheim in my bracket to win the cup. Their rush is unmatched. And they typically play well chasing the game. Long shot but I just have a feeling.
I got Ducks fever baby! Love the Ducks!
If the ducks can add a player like Robert Thomas, add 1-2 more proven 3rd/4th liners, and resign Carlson or get another D man like him, they should be good. They should have enough cap space and they could trade MacT and Zellweger for players.

The reason nobody has noticed is because Colorado, Dallas, and Minnesota were all a cut above the Ducks. No disrespect to Anaheim – this team is very good and only going to get better for the next five years. They just aren’t that level of Colorado or Dallas and Minnesota
Thank God Sennecke didn't have Cronin as coach
Worth mentioning that mcdavid had a broken foot putting up those stats

It'll be a fun ride until the avalanche shut the door on the ducks if they make through the knights
