However, the team failed to get back to the postseason of almost winning it all. After the lockout in , he was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Nov. Similar to Bryzgalov, Anatoli Semenov wore two numbers for the Ducks across his two stints with the team.
He was a founding member of the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, joining the team via the Expansion Draft. He wore the number 19 during his first season and a half. He was dealt to the Flyers in March for Milos Holan.
He amassed 37 points in 64 games played. Just over a year later he was dealt back to Anaheim for Brian Wesenberg. He only played in 12 games for Anaheim during the season, but was able to put up 10 points.
He retired one season later after playing 25 games with the Sabres. The Ducks have 17 numbers that have never been worn by a single player in their franchise history. At some point the Ducks will have another player don the 88 or With the likes of Trevor Zegras, Benoit-Olivier Groulx and Brayden Tracey on the way, there are plenty of opportunities for some of these numbers to be added to the list.
Fan of the Anaheim Ducks for my whole life. Excited to be writing about the team I love. Talking all things Ducks on the Forever Mighty Podcast!

Aside from Ray Emery turning into Dominik Hasek over a 10 game sample size, Kariya is just trying to drag 4 other guys who never played games in the organization to respectability. That should be a fairly familiar situation for him. Uncle Jimmy Says: Don McSween - Almost singlehandedly changed Ducks history when, in a game against the Jets, his skate blade severed the achilles tendon of a young winger from Finland.
Luckily for all except maybe Oleg Tverdovsky , a full recovery was made and Ducks lore remained intact. As a defenseman Don was reliant, quick and a strong puck handler. And he was great at it. Seeing Vermette get in here over Bob Corkum sucks but thats just how it goes sometimes.
Brendan Mikkelson and Kent Huskins is the most dead puck era defense pair I can think of. Perry and Bryzgalov are doing most of the work here if this team wants to compete. Uncle Jimmy Says: Steve Rucchin - Nearly invisible with the spotlights intensely focused on his famed line mates, Rucchin etched out his place in Ducks history by excelling at the qualities those same line mates were lacking. Using a combination of size, strength, and often overlooked ability he was able to be exactly what was needed for his line to flourish.
The Twos are unequivocally my favorite, but thats because thats some serious throwback hockey and I am the Hockey Boomer. You could make a strong and well-reasoned argument for either The Fives or The Fours being able to make a big push in a tournament setting. Sixes, Eights, and Nines are non-factors here, and although I love Selanne and Perrs, you absolutely aren't going to convince me the Threes and Zeroes don't cap out at Bronze Medal game. But who cares what I think; who would you take?

The home jerseys undergo some minor modifications, including a mock tie-down collar and orange trim around the numbers.
The tail stripe pattern also harkens back to the original one, albeit no longer at an angle. The jersey was introduced with zero fanfare -- no unveiling ceremony, no teasers, not even a press release. The Ducks blanked the Kings, The Anaheim Ducks celebrate a milestone this season, their 25th anniversary season. The past 24 seasons have brought us 1 Stanley Cup Championship, 2 Western Conference Titles and countless great players and moments. I have grown up with this team, literally, I am 26 and before we drop the puck on the 25th season, Pucks of a Feather looks back at some memorable Ducks.
Today I have the honor of bringing the best Ducks to wear 24, 23, 22, and At number 24 is one of the best defensemen to ever grace the Ducks blue-line. Ruslan Salei was drafted 9th overall by the Ducks in and imposed his will from the second he stepped on the ice in Anaheim. Salei played 9 full seasons with the team and compiled points in that almost game span. He was a key member of the Ducks run to Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals and scored perhaps the biggest goal of his career in overtime of Game 3 against Martin Brodeur.
