Two big days in Duck-land.
Tomorrow: The Toronto Maple Leafs are in Anaheim for the first time since November, 2003. Canada's most recognizable franchise (unless you favor Montreal) is like Halley's Comet in these parts. Get a front-row seat to the game, and maybe you'll be seen by millions of Canadians on CBC's nightly highlights package!
Thursday: All-star reserves are announced. Expect Ryan Getzlaf to get his first all-star nod and a trip to ... Atlanta. (In diametric opposition to an outdoor game in Buffalo, an all-star game in Atlanta just seems wrong.)
About J.P.
J.P. Hoornstra has been covering the Anaheim Ducks since 2007. Eight months after the University of Wisconsin won its third NCAA hockey championship, he was born in a frigid Madison winter. He betrayed his blue-blooded beginnings by graduating from UCLA in 2003, and welcomes any and all dialogue on the finer points of hockey.
