Schedule Weary

from Mike Brophy of the Hockey News,

Any wonder the Ducks – our choice to repeat as Stanley Cup champions – open the year 1-3-1?

Ask any player and he will tell you there is nothing worse than having to sit through an opponent’s opening ceremonies at the start of the year. The Ducks had to sit through three.

I wouldn’t blame Anaheim GM Brian Burke if he drags on his own opening ceremonies for about an hour Wednesday when Boston comes to town. Though it’s not really the Bruins fault Anaheim got saddled with such a lousy schedule.

From the way I heard it in London, both teams were given the option to return to SoCal after the games or do an East Coast road trip.  The Kings elected to come back to LA, while the Ducks elected to take the road trip and have one less road trip later in the season.
