*if necessary Note: Versus is carrying five of the seven games nationally, but when a game is televised by a local broadcast partner (FS West or Prime Ticket), the Versus feed will be blacked out locally. . Quick hits from Friday’s practiceApril 24th, 2009, 1:56 pm by Curtis Zupke, Staff writerThe Ducks were fairly loose but mostly business-like at Friday’s morning skate, remaining neither cocky nor nervous with their 3-1 lead on San Jose. Historically, the numbers portend the series ending soon: The Ducks are 8-2 in their first crack at eliminating an opponent while San Jose is 7-11 in elimination games. Coach Randy Carlyle wasn’t having any of it. “You don’t talk to that,” he said. “You guys (the media) talk to that. Hockey coaches don’t talk about those things. They talk about staying the course and … about the process. We’ll let other people make those comments.” Economy ends Ducks’ playoff sellout streakApril 23rd, 2009, 7:00 am by Curtis Zupke, Staff writerEarlier this year, the depressed economic climate was enough for the Ducks to freeze ticket prices for next season. But fans are feeling the pinch more than ever this season. That was the main factor for the Ducks’ playoff sellout streak ending at 20 games Tuesday, according to Tim Ryan, executive vice president and chief operating officer. “You don’t have to look any further than the economy,” Ryan said. Only 16,277 tickets were sold for Game 3, well short of the 17,174-plus mark the club normally achieves at Honda Center. It was the first time the Ducks failed to sell out a playoff game since Game 6 of the 2006 Western Conference quarterfinals against Calgary and therefore the first playoff non-sellout since the Ducks won the Stanley Cup in 2007. Ducks-Sharks tidbitsApril 13th, 2009, 9:46 am by Curtis Zupke, Staff writerA few notes to pass along, courtesy of the Ducks … –Besides this being the first all-California playoff series since 1969, it will be the first in-state postseason matchup in the NHL, NBA or Major League Baseball since 2002, when the Angels and San Francisco played in the World Series. –The Ducks-Sharks series features two of the more successful teams in the NHL since the league resumed play after the 2004-05 lockout. Turco expected to play tonight against DucksApril 10th, 2009, 10:18 am by Curtis Zupke, Staff writerDallas Stars goaltender Marty Turco is expected to play tonight when the Ducks try to clinch a playoff berth, according to the Dallas Morning News. Turco has missed the past three games with a lower-body injury but skated Thursday and dressed as a backup to Matt Climie. Turco is 3-1 with a 2.35 goals-against average against the Ducks this season. Dallas has been eliminated from playoff contention. Ducks recall right wing BodieApril 5th, 2009, 4:30 pm by Curtis Zupke, Staff writerThe Ducks recalled right wing Troy Bodie from Iowa on Sunday. Bodie had 15 goals and 27 points with 105 penalty minutes in 71 games with Iowa. This is his third recall this season, having appeared in four games with the Ducks this season, the last on March 6 against Dallas. He made his NHL debut on Jan.16 at Pittsburgh. The 6-foot-4, 215-pound Bodie has spent the past three seasons in the AHL and ECHL. The Ducks hope Bodie might eventually fill a checking role similar to that of Travis Moen. ADVERTISEMENT
