Former Ducks Thread II: AKA Wild Bill is good

[Terry Yake]

we all had high hopes for him. especially after the way he tore up the WHL in his last season. pretty sure he scored over 60 goals

he just clearly wasn't cut out for the NHL where he couldn't just rely on just his speed like he had in the past. that's pretty much all he had going for him

 

[AngelDuck]

The thing about Etem is that he had terrible hands and a weak shot. It wasn't just his brain that failed him

 

[bsu]

Will karlsson is so damn good at getting into scoring areas....

it's going to be very interesting to see how he performs next season in his contract year

 

[Ducks in a row]

So William Karlsson with a hat trick giving him 39 goals on the season. Who thought he would ever score so many goals in a season?

pretty much no one ever

pretty much no one ever

There were a few of us that saw top end talent there.

you're telling me you saw karlsson having a 40 goal season a few years ago?

he showed glimpses of talent and if you would have told me he'd be a top line player one day i would have believed it. but 40 goals? not a chance

Don't normally post here...but lurk daily. Can't believe this is the first time I've seen this and I follow Anaheim religiously and also live in Toronto. Hope this gives some of you a good laugh.

ok guys I have a confession to make.. in chel 17 i made william karlsson a back to back rocket winner and our top line center en route to back to back cups. Im sorry.

also his latest goal was beautiful.

Theodore on the score sheet for Vegas from their 1st ever playoff goal

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

I'd be okay with either Vegas or LA losing, but I'm not okay with either of them winning.

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

I'd be okay with either Vegas or LA losing, but I'm not okay with either of them winning.

Unless you’re Captain Kirk, that’s a no win scenario.

 

[Ducks in a row]

And it ends up being the game winner

 

[Kalv]

Karlsson had a very strong game, too. Boy, we could really use those both two right now.

 

[Paul4587]

I'd be okay with either Vegas or LA losing, but I'm not okay with either of them winning.

I'm the same. f*** them both.

 

[ayrton2388]

Why the hate on Vegas?
I like 'em. I think what they're doing is awesome. I hope they sweep the kings.

Goaltending has not been this issue this series. Defense, team system (extreme lack of speed and reliance on dump and chase), lack of leadership by the big 3, and the amount of stupid penalties taken especially by our "leaders".

 

[Vinegar Strokes]

I can't see the images but I'm assuming they're pictures of Freddy.

Yes, we're missing the goalie who's been blown up twice so far in these playoffs and is sporting an .885 sv%. He'd totally fix our issues!

No goalie was going to look good playing for the Ducks in this series. It's amazing that the Ducks haven't been able to cover for Gibson's biggest weakness, which is breakaway dekes. How many times has SJ scored on a 2-1 where the Ducks player tries to take the puck, the puck gets to the other player and the player makes a quick move across to the backhand?

Who's teaching our defenders how to play a 2 v 1?
