Ducks take it to Columbus

The ducks really played well against Columbus tonight, shots on goal were quality, smart, very little overpassing, and Getz really had some great shots on goal. Getz almost had a hat trick which was exciting to see.

As far as Getz's playing he needs to continue to take those shots and minimize the cheezie little passes he sometimes makes to players who just can't pick up on them. He is a great playmaker but I think his focus should be less on making the play.

This game showed that. He looked for the shot and thought first before he made a waisteful pass.

Another game note was Perros's feed to Bobby Ryan. Coach Randy said before the game that he is expecting more from Ryan than he did in the beginning when Getz and Perry were Rookies. That is why he is putting him in on offensive opportunities like special teams on the Power Play.

So in the end, great game! Great coaching on the fact that they wore out Columbus durinbg the first. This allowed us to pull through stong toward the end of the game because you could tell they got tired quick.

Also, the defense did great by keeping Nash at bay.

Fantastic Game.
