Ducks Gameday -- All bad seasons must come to an end.

PrintEdmonton Oilers (whatever) at Anaheim Ducks (whatever), 5 pm (last game of the 2009-10 reg. season)
Anaheim Calling and Copper & Blue -- if this game goes to overtime, I'm counting it as "postseason".
Last game of the season, and guess who's incredibly ill-prepared to write a gameday post? You and me both.
Did get a quick cartoon drawn, though.
Now today is probably the day when I should write a 'just-in-case' farewell to some combination of Scott Niedermayer, Teemu Selanne, and Saku Koivu. They all could be playing in their final games in Anaheim sweaters tonight, and for Scott & Teemu, perhaps even in NHL sweaters. But I'm already way too late and these possible farewells are better left for the long summertime anyways. There's no way I'm doing it justice today.
Still, I did decide to take a look back over some Scott, Teemu, and Saku-themed images from over the years at BoC, particularly ones that deal with retirement. We'll see whether any of them get to be re-recycled for use this coming summer.
Ah, memories...
May 2006 -- Up too late after a G2 loss
June 2007 -- Retirement Threat #1: how do you replace Scott Niedermayer?
August 2007 -- Do stupid uniforms make Cents?
September 2007 -- Scott, you lazy genius!
December 2007 -- Welcome Back Scotter!
January 2008 -- Finnish Flashback
April 2008 -- Mr. Incredible! / November 2008 -- When the ketchup starts flowing...
December 2008 -- Ducks Gameday -- The Three Patos!
August 2009 -- Season Review: The Finnished Flash (and Koivu, too!)
September 2009 -- Season Review: Captain Experience
March 2010 -- Ducks Gameday -- Must... Write... Tribute... Poem!
Prediction: Tears, applause, ovations -- it's going to be emotional. I'll be a mess in game comments; stop on by.
Go Ducks.

I suppose tonight will be interesting in one regard. The Oilers played yesterday in L.A. and got outshot 55-16 (but “won”). The Ducks went on their kiddie field trip and got outshot 99-45 over two games.
Can both teams find a way to get outshot tonight?

Evening!
So I was mulling it over in true Ducks fashion and decided to watch, so much last/potential last gaming going on in this game. Seems like a decent game so far, at least.
That’s an impressive set of cartoons/photoshops, by the way!
ONE MORE YEAR!!!
Nice goddamn work, Teemu.

Heh. Talking to the Finnish media lately, Selänne’s as cryptic as ever. He’s basically said both “This was it” and “I wonder if i might have one more year in me” a little later.
Heh, plus it’s tough to understand him sometimes through his broken jaw. I suspect he’ll do whatever Niedermayer does — that’s been the pattern of the past.

Now I have to pay attention to the rest of the game to find out if the eventual answer to the trivia question “Who scored the final goal of the 2009-10 regular season?” is really George Parros.

Ah, with five minutes left Hayward bothers to tell us that Marchant is injured, or rather has been injured for a while but had played through it. Oblique injury or something?
Maybe he said it before — I haven’t been paying great attention.

Yeah, I liked that we kept scoring goals after it was 4 – 1 for a while. Once I saw that score up there I figured we were basically guaranteed to lose 5 – 4 in a shootout. But Edmonton was just way too terrible.
Weird how many non-scorers had goals tonight, too. Pretty cool.

Still, I guess I’ll take solace in one piece of trivia.
The one time the Ducks have played the Avalanche in the postseason, we beat ’em in four games. The one time the Ducks have played the Canucks in the postseason, we beat ’em in five games.
Silly Sharks and Kings will probably go the dramatic route instead.

That was a fun game to watch last night. Edmonton is horrible.
I think Scott and Teemu are both done. Teemu hit is 600 goal, and Scotts wife wont let him play another year. But that being said, I want them both to come back, I’m just not expecting it, so I dont get crushed if they dont. They are both such stand up individuals and great hockey players too. Best of luck to both in what ever they do.

I’m sorry I missed this one (as well as the last few games). If the trio retires/signs elsewhere, which I think they will, I’ll have to go back and watch their last game as Ducks.
BoC is going to be such a fun place for the next few weeks, and I’m really curious to see how the Kings/Sharks do in the playoffs. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to follow along — the next six weeks are going to be utterly miserable (stupid real life!), so I won’t be able to tune back in until the Finals. At which point I am fervently praying that all three BoC teams are golfing.
Stay safe, BoC! And Ducks fans, keep up the cartoons and other shenanigans, and don’t let the Kings and Sharks contingents muck up the place too much. ;)

I’m not sure if they televised it or not, but Hiller coming out to give away his jersey looked just about as uncomfortable as possible. The look on his face was a mixture of “FUUUUUCK!” and “I want to move as little as possible.” My girlfriend yelled “That lucky fucker!” at the guy who got his jersey. Which was hilarious, because she never yells or curses. The first guy that got a jersey, got Steve Eminger. The lady next to him got Selanne. The Eminger guy looked at her and offered up his jersey as a trade. Reading her lips, I’m pretty sure she said something like “Are you out of your fucking mind?!”

Aside from the obviousness of the lopsidedness of that trade. Yeah, that is kind of fucked up. I would just be thrilled to be up there. I was pretty damn jealous of the guy who drew Mike Brown. Don’t get me wrong, I would have killed for that Teemu jersey, but Mike Brown is fucking Mike Brown and I like how he plays. They were selling used sticks for $50 each in the lobby. All they had left was mainly Ryan Whitney. I picked up a stick, looked at it and then saw that it was Whitney’s and immediately put it back feeling dirty and aggrivated.
Go wash your hands with some strong soap.
I’m not too sure what to make of the booing of Whitney last night — it was funny, but I don’t know that he really deserves it. Or merits it, rather. I dunno — no Whitney means no Lubo — let the Oilers fans pick on him, I say.
And that Eminger-for-Selanne trade is awesome. Hopefully Eminger was nearby.

I disagree…his play IMO greatly contributed to us missing the playoffs….he wasnt the only one..but hes in the top 10 or 5
from what I read from both him and gorilla head…he had no intrest in obeying RC’s system…IMO thats detrimental to the team..cuz I think RC’s system only works when everyone pulls the same way…I think Rc’s system lends itself to creativity….but I dunno…im not an X’ n O’s guy…so yea I think he deserves to get boo-ed…he purposly try to do his own thing…thinking his way was better….so fuck him…booooooooooo whitney!!!
p.s.
they could have also been booing for letting perry score in the olympics…thats also an acceptable reason…

It’s not that there’s not reasons why he couldn’t be booed, but we really should save that for real enemies — it means something when opposing fans booed Pronger or Perry or Mayday. The time to boo Whitney was when he was in a Ducks sweater; nowadays that’s Oiler fans’ jobs.

On the X's and O's level
it’s not the easiest system to buy into as an offensive defensemen. It’s why he and Wiz looked so terrible in it, and why they’ve both given the puck away around the net, sometimes to a lone man in front of their goaltender. It’s tough to train yourself to use the boards if you think you can take a risk and make a difference in the middle of the ice, and it’s tough to get the puck back when you’re not all that physical (or large in Wiz’s case). It’s a system built to highlight a guy like Sheldon Brookbank. If you’re a bit more creative, and most defensemen are, you’re going to find it constricting.

I just dont think any ducks fan should feel stupid for booing whitney….the guy is a 2nd pair dfensemen…if he would have bought into RC’s system from the begining…made adjustments to his game…how many games potientlly would that have won us? hmmm? debatlable of course..but…point is he put himself above the team…he didnt wear that ducks sweater with any pride….whiz might be just as lousy..but theres no question he prides his teammates and orginzation…hes just an idiot and does it the wrong way at times…but I know hes doing everything he can to run RC system…I think whitney tried it for a week..then said fuck it..and did his own thing….and ducks fans know it….

Hey, he did fight Joe Pavelski! Sort of… In a manner of speaking…
He made his mistakes, but I think there were long stretches when Whitney was helping the Ducks — optics hurt the guy a ton. But now that he’s departed, I don’t know why we’d bother booing Whitney — frankly, he’s not important enough.

"Ridin’ The Meat Train & Dreaming of Jack’s Johnson All Summer Long!"
http://www.battleofcali.com/
ok, I ad mit it, I boo’ed Whitney. But someone else started it and I was in a fun lovin mood and so I started booing random Oiler players who got the puck. And also I would miss Whitney touching the puck and have to do a makeup boo. There was an Oilers fan with some duckie buddies behind us and they were also booing Whitney and laughing when some of the players would blow out a skate and just fall down for no reason (it happened alot, it was just that kind of game for the teams) There was much laughing and fun being had in my area of the arena.
Let's go Ducks.
actually, Wiz doesn’t do everything he can to run the RC system. He threw the puck into the middle of teh ice about as often as Whitney did this season. And I can’t really blame either of them for it. Wiz because he played a lot of transition in Chicago; Whitney because the Pittsburgh centers made him look really good when he got them the puck. These are offensive defensemen that really can’t make a safe first pass along the boards, nor would they want to, and they can’t retrieve pucks well along the boards either. Carlyle is really asking both of them for a lot. And I think both Whitney and Wisniewski in the more open ice of the Eastern Conference, or at least a system with more open ice look much more like Top 4 defensemen than they ever would under Carlyle. It’s kind of a disservice to their game that they play with us, just like when we had Ryan Shannon on the fourth line.

I’d hang out with Wiz. He’s kind of on that level where he’s so bad that I couldn’t needle him about hockey, though. It would be that sore spot hanging in the air that if I brought it up would make things awkward and quiet.
“Well maybe if you didn’t telegraph every shot and pass, you wouldn’t be fishing your mistakes out of the back of the net”
(crickets)
“I’m sorry man. I didn’t mean that. It’s the system, man. It’s making you look bad. You just keep passing it to the middle of the ice from behind your net and trying to thread the needle into the middle of the ice. Eventually, Carlyle will understand that he’s wrong and you’re right”

I’m not too sure what to make of the booing of Whitney last night
I wasn’t really sure what to make of it either. I did laugh a little when everyone started booing him. I didn’t join in though. I mean, fuck, the guy got traded. Not like he pissed on the ice and announced “I want out of this shit hole! Fuck all of you!” When he scored I did yell “Ryan God damned Whitney hit the fucking net?! Are you kidding me?!” That was more of a gut reaction though. Parros seemed to be talking a lot of shit to him. I read above that something happened with him last time we played them, where he got in a fight or something? Meh, whatever.
By the way when Lubo walked out to give away his jersey my girlfriend sighed and said “Awwwwwww! He’s so adorable!”
Seriously — I only caught quick glimpses of formal Lubo on TV, but I wish they had put a camera strictly on him. He was adorable.
And speaking of this:

I'm here! I know, I brighten the room. Everything's better.
Did anyone else see that when they wre giving away the jersey’s off their backs the ducks org forgot to get a fan to get Wards’ jersey. We dissed Ward, which was actually sorta sad cause he went up to the announcer about it and everything. I don’t know if they found someone to take it or not cause I left.
Let's go Ducks.
And I have no idea if that was Ward’s last game as an NHLer or not — he made some noise about retiring before coming to Anaheim, I thought.
I don’t have too much an opinion, but the guy did get a lot of chances to blast it yesterday — didn’t get any goals, but did have his chances to go out on the scoresheet. Maybe he’ll be back cheap — I wouldn’t be pissed.

I would be ok with Ward coming back to the Ducks next year he seemed to still be able to play, but I wouldn’t be surprised now to see him go to another team cause who wants to play for an organization that can’t even remember you are part of the team.
Let's go Ducks.
To be remembered, apparently, you have to make comical errors. The fact that nobody seems to notice Ward a lot is probably a good thing, or else it’s just a result of him playing during a stretch when nothing mattered.
Still, he wasn’t awful by eye — I’m not sure what the spreadsheets will say, though.

Oh yeah, I remember listening to Ward argue with the referee on his first penalty — there was definitely some swearing and some questioning about how long the dude had been refereeing. I was not surprised at all to see Ward quickly returned to the box. :)

Wow, I didn’t notice. That sucks. I like Ward. Maybe the seat that got his jersey didn’t have a person in it and it just caused some confusion. Still sucks though.
You would think they woulda had a contingency plan for that happening, like if winning fan don’t show up by 2nd period, sent someone to hunt fan down, if fan not there, pick person in seat next to fan.

At this point, I’m not even looking at really the possibility of becoming a free agent again.
