Actually all galaxies spin the same way. The only thing that differs is the viewpoint you have on it. You take a spinning galaxy and look at it from one view and keep it spinning and you go and see it from the other side you will see that it looks like it's spinning in the opposite direction when actually it didn't change it's spin at all. It was you who viewed it from a different view and as such looked like it was spinning in the opposite direction. But in the end they were all spinning in the same direction whatever view you had of it.
