the devil went down to jersey.



Sorry for the break. Shit happens, macbook had to be repaired, I got in a car accident.
Now that that's over with...

Yesterday night the Ducks took on the New Jersey Devils in New Jersey.  The first game of a four game road trip did not start off well for the Ducks.  The Ducks were a wreck, probably just as bad as the car accident I was in on Tuesday.

During the first period, just 38 seconds into the game, the Devils scored on their first shot. It was an early indication that the Ducks were not going to play well.  The Ducks had two powerplays to try to tie the game, but looked worse on the powerplay. We couldn't pass, couldn't shoot, couldn't score.  The defensive looked like it imploded on itself and it didnt get better the rest of the way.

The second period gave the Ducks some hope as Corey Perry scored early into the second to tie the game.  It was even on the scoreboard, but on the ice the gameplay clearly favored the Devils.  The Devils score two more times in the period, once when the were shorthanded, and it was a sign that we were going to lose.

The third period was a snore. Nothing positive happened for the Ducks and I even changed the channel to the Kings game. The Kings won 5-2 to Carolina and I felt like I got robbed out of watching a good hockey game by being loyal to the Ducks.

With the loss, the Ducks are 14 / 15 in the Western Conference.
We can't seem to win more than two games in row.
Jiggy came back from his injury with a bad attitude.
Our defensive imploded.
Corey Perry & Ryan Getzlaf are on 9 game point streaks.
Wiz has been back from his suspension for a two games now, but he's playing like he's still on forced vacation.
Ryan Whitney is inconsistent in his defensive.
And oh, we should still fire head coach Randy Carlyle. The bandwagon got derailed after a couple wins, but believe me, I'm still driving it.
