Gordon Bombay - Greatest Coach Ever?


Now that the Ducks are up 2-0 on those choking Ottawa Senators, the editorial board at the Daily Dyson has decided to focus on one of the greatest coaches to ever coach this legendary team.

Gordon Bombay was sentenced to coach the District 5 pee-wee hockey team, who later became the Mighty Ducks, after being charged with DWI in 1992. Through toughness and perseverance, Bombay was able to coach a motley crew of young kids into becoming a successful hockey team. The success of this team led to continued coaching, two sequels (D2 and D3, which the Terminator franchise later blatantly stole), and the creation of the modern day Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.


Bombay revolutionized the hockey world with his use of the deadly "Flying V", as well as utlizing the unique talents of his players, ranging from the knuckle puck to figure skating prowess, to utlizing the line of the Bash Brothers to enforce a stiff and bruising play on their opponents, who incidentally always seemed to wear black.

The editorial board at the Daily Dyson wishes the best to Gordon Bombay and the Ducks. Anybody who is beating the Sens 2-0 in the Stanley Cup finals is a friend of the Daily Dyson.


Pronger, Niedermayers, Moen, Getzlaf. You must always remember one thing.
"Ducks fly together." - Coach Gordon Bombay
