The Ducks brought their Olympic medals to practice Tuesday. Check out the California style: Three of the players are wearing flip-flops on the ice.

The Ducks’ seven Olympic medals were the most by any NHL team. The San Jose Sharks were second, with five. The Ducks’ seven tied the 1998 Pittsburgh Penguins and the 2002 Detroit Red Wings for most in NHL history.

The 2002 Red Wings won the Stanley Cup. The Ducks are still fighting for a playoff spot.

‘We should win a lot of games with so many good players,’ Selanne said.
