— Kid Ish (@kid_ish) May 11, 2014OMG. Gibson leads team on to ice. Nothing confirmed yet. A rush of fear just washed over me. I was nervous before...
— Jen Neale (@MsJenNeale_PD) May 11, 2014Yes, that is John Gibson leading the Ducks on the ice for warm-ups. This will be his fourth NHL game. Total. First playoff game.

— Ryan Getzlaf's Hair (@GetzlafsHair) May 11, 2014A chef is showing how to prepare a duck here in Staples Center. Looks real classy when the home team is down by two.
— AJ Manderichio (@AJManderichio) May 11, 2014During 1st intermission, @chefludo snaps the head of a duck and then chops its head off on the jumbotron. pic.twitter.com/yVcoKiAV7Q
— The Royal Half (@theroyalhalf) May 11, 2014He's handling the raw duck, then without washing his hands, chops the cooked one and hands a piece to a kid... #Salmonella
