The Anaheim Ducks regular season is underway! They opened the season Wednesday, October 3rd, against their cross-state rivals, the San Jose Sharks. This matchup has been anticipated ever since the Ducks released their regular season schedule. Opening their season against the Sharks gave them an opportunity to redeem themselves from the embarrassment of being swept in round one of the playoffs.
I think it is safe to say that Ducks Nation was torn as to whether or not the Ducks could actually redeem themselves. Half of us were hopeful starry-eyed fans, even though we knew a loss was possible.
