The Mighty Ducks

The recent NHL Stanley Cup play-offs in which the Annaheim Ducks used their webbed feet to waddle over the Ottawa Senators reminds me of my cheesehead roots and my sorority sister Cary who used to handle public relations for the famous Peabody Ducks. (I was a Delta Delta Delta at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.)
Even though I grew up in frosty Wisconsin, where hockey is BIG, I don't have a razor-sharp sense of the game. We used to skate on frozen lagoons surrounding the Vilas Park Zoo in Madison, Wisconsin, and I've hugged the walls of many a skating rink due to weak ankles, which I've discovered is a genetic condition. Also, who can forget the old joke: I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out?
I have a growing Sports Widow movie list, and I'm adding The Mighty Ducksto my must-see list along with the Paul Newman's Slap Shot (25th Anniversary Special Edition)
