Ed Stein: Catching Up on recent Ducks News My takes on the latest Ducks "news"

I'd have to go with an obvious pick, just because he's meant so much to the franchise. Teemu Selanne Mighty Ducks Home Jersey, with the "A"

Couldn't agree more with your thoughts on the Silfverberg signing. A great deal that gives him the opportunity to prove himself. Can't wait to see what happens with DSP!

I would have to say an away Goldberg.

I'd go with Adam Banks

Get a Salei jersey. I saw a dude at some games wearing a jersey that said on the back:

SALEI
24
EVER

2003 Stanley Cup Finals #9 Paul Kariya. I don't care what anyone says, he put that team on the map year in and year out before Selanne came here. He gave his heart and soul every night

I think when the real story comes out about why he left, Eisner will be the real villain.

Kariya is one of my all-time favorites.

Well, I won't disagree about Kariya putting the Ducks on the map, so to speak, but it wasn't "year in and year out before Selanne." Selanne was traded to Anaheim during Kariya's second season. It was also the year that Kariya scored 50 goals. They did it together. The real "villain" is Bryan Murray. I don't believe for a second that he intended to resign Kariya or Selanne. Kariya was RFA and he was never offered a contract, but a week into the 2003 free agency Murray had managed to sign Federov and Prospal to very rich contracts.

Kariya is one of my all-time favorites.

I remember Paul saying same time next year in front of the Pond .Then read a couple days later in the OC Register Sports page on the front page read 'BLINDSIDED"

All I remember is Kariya being my favorite player as a kid, with Selanne as a close second.
