Anaheim Keeps The Big Duck

Image hosted by Photobucket.comBrian Burke kept the scoring leader of the Ducks at the pond for yet another season today. Teemu Selanne, the Finnish Flash, will return to the Arrowhead Pond in October to try and improve on the Western Conference Final finish of this past season.

Photobucket - Video and Image HostingThe 35 year old forward enjoyed renewed success after re-joining the Ducks last summer. He finished with 40 goals and 50 assists to finish 15th in last year's regular season pool scoring and then finished the playoffs with 7 goals and 7 assists, including 2 game winners.

His signing will boost the respectibility of the franchise and is an essential building block to the Ducks success next season. I'm sure that he'll figure to be an integral part of someone's hockey pool team... if not mine. Ha ha. Finishing 15th last season will probably make his pool positioning in the first round of selections, if not, a very high second round pick.
