2005 Anaheim Ducks

With the 2003-04 season a bad memory for the Mighty Ducks, the team hopes to regain its playoff dominance this season. Recent additions Teemu Selanne and Travis Moen should get the team back on track. Anaheim has proved to be a good hockey town, so the tickets will be flying out the door this year, as usual.

These two players join former Detroit Red Wing Sergei Fedorov on offense, and the result should be exciting, high-scoring games, especially with the new rules designed to increase scoring.

Defensively, the Mighty Ducks have not changed much -- Keith Carney and Sandis Ozolinsh will continue to command 25+ minutes per night. Strength will be found in Ruslan Salei and Vitaly Vishnevski on the line.

This balanced team puts coach Randy Carlyle within reach of his goal: a team that can skate to shut down the opposition and then respond with equal speed in transition on the attack. With a solid core of experience, the Ducks will have to incorporate a few more youngsters into the roster for the playoffs. With major changes to the lineup of key players coupled with some younger players getting acclimated to the ice, the trip to the Stanley Cup finals may make for the trickiest ride at Disneyland. Don't miss out on your chance to get tickets to see the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim this year.
