Battle of California - Kings, Sharks, and Ducks

Boy, I procrastinated on this thing -- wait, I'm retiring in how many days? A look back at ten Sleektoon projects that I'm proud to have created.

With the Red Wings dropping 3 straight games in California, BoC's best-and-worst tradition is back!

The Ducks have met up with the Red Wings in every odd-number year they've qualified for the playoffs. Plus: sorry, Avs.

A look at first periods with and without Ryan Getzlaf in the lineup. Also, sorry, Boston. :)

Columbus Blue Jackets (10-6-0) at Anaheim Ducks (10-8-3), 7 pmThe Cannon and Anaheim Calling -- do it for Pahlsson. It's a sad fact: You can rape some of the states all of the time, and you can...

The poor New York Islanders came to California looking for 2 standings points; instead they got 2 goals.

Through the month of October, the Lightning were an eastern-conference-leading 7-2-1, including an impressive 4-1-0 on the road. They had scored 3+ goals in 8 of their 10 games and hadn't lost consecutive games once. Then, however, came that old California road swing. Uh oh.

This really could be the spectating climax of the entire hockey year. Today's amazing schedule features rematches of each of the last three gold medal games. Please, NBC, don't mess this up.

In three Ducks/Kings games this season, Jack Johnson has eight points, while the Ducks as a team have only seven goals. The Anaheim Ducks are 0-8-0 within the BoC this season. County Rape!

Going into tonight's tilt with the NY Rangers, Teemu Selanne has scored on his last five shots (counting last night's shootout winner over Philly). Plus, Los Angeles >>> St. Louis and Anaheim >>> Boston. State Rape ensues.
