Ducks Not Using Their Heads

from Randy Youngman of the OC Register,
The inspirational message on the chalkboard in the Ducks’ locker room before their 2008 Stanley Cup playoff opener Thursday was this quote from author Robert Louis Stevenson: “To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end in life.”
After watching the Ducks’ lopsided 4-0 loss to the Dallas Stars, a weak first attempt to defend their 2007 Stanley Cup championship, I suggest unveiling a more appropriate quotation before Game 2 on Saturday night at Honda Center.
This one, from noted puckhead Willie Shakespeare, would fit: “Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.”
And speaking of the heads that were crowned in June, why did some of the guys in the home black forget to use them Thursday night?

Glad to see the NHL finally calling penalties on the dirty Ducks. It’s about time.
