Never thought I'd hear that.

Said Cherry: "I'm picking Anaheim. I love the way they play. They're my favorite team. I love Dallas too, but I don't know if they have a chance against Vancouver."

good to hear. Anaheim is getting more pubicity. I sure did not mind seeing a more engaging, physical team than the Babcock days.

A bigger problem looms if the Ducks advance. Versus gets up to two games exclusively in the next round, the conference semifinals, and all games exclusively in the conference finals. When Versus gets a game exclusively, that means no local telecast. With Versus reaching only 59% of the cable households in the L.A. market, a good number of Ducks fans won't be able to watch their team.

I don't like the sound of that. :(

I guess go to a bar to watch the game.

We have gone from the soft disney ducks to the 'goon team' that Don Cherry likes...sweet.

If he starts referring to the Ducks as "we" then you're on the right track.

Not sure if it would hold up if the Leafs were still in the playoffs. ;)

The Ducks remind me of teams back from when hockey was really great. Old-school. I'm a life-long Rangers fan, but I found myself rooting as hard for them the past 3 days as I was for the Rags. Go Ducks!

Careful though, you've slipped to 3rd place in fighting majors in the playoffs ;)
