Maybe they were constantly changed because they didn't maintain their domination.Why can't we just have Ryan - Getzlaf - Perry together for a whole season. Let them work through it. They have always had spurts of pure domination. They can't maintain that because of constant changing. I think putting them together for a month or so, we'd see some great play developing and some chemistry.
Long Beach's Emerson Etem will make his NHL debut for Ducks tonight against San Jose. Said he's playing w/Rickard Rakell and Kyle Palmieri.

I like it. It's a good final test to see if Rakell has any business staying up. Some sick hands on that line.
Kid line huh. Wonder how long that will stick tonight.

With the way the Sharks have been playing lately, I don't think our odds are great to win this one with any combination.Holy schmoly. Kid line vs Sharks

Right. Under Carlyle, if they didn't produce for one period, all of a sudden Bobby is on the 3rd line.
You need to give a line like that time which is something they've never given much of.
Kid line huh. Wonder how long that will stick tonight.

We seemed to rise to occasion last year, when we flat out sucked, so here's hoping we can do the same with a better team.Actually I'm optimistic. Red hot opponent, we've been just ok of late, seems like a get up and play game to me.

I'm not so sure that's a good idea. 3 kids who have never played together being thrown to the wolves against one of the hottest teams in the NHL. This reeks of desperation. It's the kind of move I would expect at the end of the year after being eliminated form playoff contention.
Are we that desperate?
It's not that bad of a line right off the bat of the game. If it doesn't work out I'm sure BB will break the line up a little bit.
