Ducks Gameday -- Another chance to lose to the Jackets!

PrintAnaheim Ducks (Fail for Mikhail) at Columbus Blue Jackets (Fail for Nail), 3 pm
Anaheim Calling and The Cannon -- also Meg and Rudy both have gameday posts below.
A comprehensive list of opponents that the Blue Jackets have defeated twice this season:
- Anaheim Ducks
- Minnesota Wild
Not the strongest, but I've had Columbus use that line before... :)
Of course, this struggle isn't really new -- Ducks have seemingly always have had trouble with the pesky Blue Jackets. Anaheim has dropped two games to Columbus this season, two games last season, and three the year before. So sure, this seems like a big dropoff -- last game visiting the best team in the league to today visiting the worst team -- but our odds of losing are still pretty substantial, I'd say.
Especially if Getzlaf's still a passenger -- motivate him, Rat!
Prediction: I'll be around for game comments this afternoon -- stop on by. Ducks go to overtime for the fifth straight game, then probably blow it.
Go Ducks.

I like how all the related fanposts are from 2-3 years ago.
Also, with each win you doom yourself to a worse draft position, I love it!
I'm warning you! I have ADHD and I know how to use it!!!
Good job Giants, now win 3 more world series titles and then you just might be worthy of being mentioned in the same league as the A's.
THAT IS NABOKOV IN NET NOT NITTYMAKISHUTUP!!!!!!!!!!

Shrug — drafts are boring as fuck anyways.
I’ll just go for the short feel-good moments, which probably isn’t today. It’s sort of weird — not many fans would feel better about going to Detroit than going to Columbus, but I’m one of them.

Besides, this hasn’t really been true. Ducks have won a bunch in 2012, and are just two points north of the 29th-best team.

I blame Baldy.

Yep, which is why he has .923 SV%.
It’s all because of the Islanders, their defense is so good.

That was a very iffy penalty called on Perry, but he owes the refs one for that non-call against Carolina. :)

This is why Lucic is good. Every couple of weeks he flips out and gets a misconduct.

and act like you're shaking salt into your mouth; you will taste salt if you concentrate hard enough.
You lucky southern Californians

Stop being mean to the Blue Jackets you guys.
