Ducks goalie Jonathan Bernier is known by several nicknames. “Jo” and “Bernie” are common, and “JB” works as well.
But he momentarily took on a new one Monday when word spread in the Ducks’ locker room that he was named the NHL’s second star of the week.
“Second Star!” his teammates said to him jokingly.
With apologies to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, it could be said that the Ducks are “feeling the Bern” more than ever. Bernier has won five of his past seven starts as John Gibson recovers from another lower-body injury.
