So much has been happening within the Ducks organization lately, I decided that I would recap it all here on this blog.
1.) Defenseman James Wisniewski was suspended for 8 games after injuring Blackhawk Brent Seabrook.
2.) Teemu Selanne scored his 600th goal in his career Sunday vs. the Colorado Avalanche.
3.) The Ducks defeated the Sharks, Blackhawks, Avalanche, and Islanders to gain a four game winning streak and now sit 7 points out of playoff position.
4.) Jonas Hiller finally received his one of a kind goalie mask today, and is expected to don it Tuesday vs. Calgary.
5.) The Ducks signed 3 NCAA players: Jake Newton D, Nick Bonino C, and Rob Bordson LW.
6.) According to sources, The Ducks' next AHL affiliate will be the Syracuse Crunch. To add to the speculation the Crunch is holding a press conference on thursday to make the announcement. This is huge news for the Ducks since we have had our prospects spread out through the AHL and the ECHL. Now they will be easier to track and develop and they will be able to play with each other.
7.) The Ducks have faced a recent injury scare. Selanne looked like he might have been injured, Getzlaf aggravated his previous injury but only missed one game, Koivu took a shot to the face but only required stitches, and Joffrey Lupul is skating with the team again and will go on their upcoming road trip.
That is all for now.
