Line Combos: Replacing Penner?

[Arthuros]

Will there be a permanent replacement for Getz + Perry's wing? Or will we see a rotation?

More importantly, do you think they'll perform as well as Penner did in the 1st half of the season?

I'm willing to bet whoever is put there plays better then Penner did after about his first 20 games.

 

[paine]

Etem - Getzlaf - Perry
Silfverberg - Perreault - Selanne
Winnik - Koivu - Cogliano
Beleskey - Bonino - Palmieri

 

[quentez]

Before the season started, I believe I stated Palmieri would finish on Getz and Perrys wing at the end of the season. It sure looks like it will end that way now. If you asked me in October I would be happy about it. Now...not sure. Palmieri has been ineffective and inconsistent.

I'd rather slot Etem on the 1st and Palmieri on the 4th. Need a shooter with Bonino and Beleskey/Maroon.

Etem is a shooter

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

I think etem could work well with getz and perry... i dont think hes ever gotten a fair look, or time to really gel with em. I doubt we do that tho im guessing we go
Getz Perry Palmeiri
Perrault Selanne Silfverberg
Koivu Cogliano Etem
Bonino Winnick Maroon/belesky

Fowler Lovejoy
Lindholm Beauch
Robidas Sbisa/Allen/Fistiric? when robidas is back, idk exactly who gets odd manned out.

 

[paine]

Etem is a shooter

I'm not convinced. To me, he fits better on the first line.

 

[Amp30]

I liked Etem on the Koivu and Cogliano line last time they played together. I think they should just put him on different lines and see where he gels best since we have no clue at this point.

 

[Ducks Nation*]

I really liked Silf at center.....if he continues to play better is there anyway we leave him there?

 

[Dirk316]

Etem - Getzlaf - Perry
Silfverberg - Perreault - Selanne
Winnik - Koivu - Cogliano
Beleskey - Bonino - Palmieri

Wheres Maroon or Jackman? The same small soft lineup that lost to Detroit is what you want?

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

I dont really see how...
Getz Perry Palmeiri
Silf selanne Etem
Koivu Cogliano Winnick
Bonino Maroon belesky/dsp/jackman?
Perrault on bench

maybe? idk

 

[Duck Off]

Beleskey should never play ahead of Maroon.

 

[Kariya 9]

Palmeri-Getzlaf-Perry
Silfverberg-Perreault-Selanne
Winnik-Koivu-Cogliano
Etem-Bonino-Jackman/Beleskey/Maroon

Fowler-Lovejoy
Lindholm-Beachemin
Fistric/Allen-Robidas

Sbisa



I also wouldn't mind a little more experimentation with Silfverberg at center



Etem-Silfverberg-Selanne would be very dangerous and fun to watch if they could click.

 

[IDuck]

i like:
maroon/etem/palmi-getzlaf-perry
silf-pearl-selanne
winnik-koivu-cogs
beleskey-boner-take your pick

 

[Ducks Nation*]

I like Winnik on 4th with some more offense on the 3rd

 

[AngelDuck]

Palmieri-Getzlaf-Perry
Silfverberg-Perreault-Selanne
Winnik-Koivu-Cogliano
Beleskey-Bonino-Maroon

Jackman plays against LA, STL, BOS, and other physical teams and Silf comes out against those teams

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Palmieri-Getzlaf-Perry
Silfverberg-Perreault-Selanne
Winnik-Koivu-Cogliano
Beleskey-Bonino-Maroon

Jackman plays against LA, STL, BOS, and other physical teams and Silf comes out against those teams

Id be more inclined to take perreault out.... or selanne

 

[Ducks DVM]

Palmieri-Getzlaf-Perry
Silfverberg-Perreault-Selanne
Winnik-Koivu-Cogliano
Beleskey-Bonino-Maroon

Jackman plays against LA, STL, BOS, and other physical teams and Silf comes out against those teams

I agree with the lineup but suspect its Palmieri who comes out against the physical teams.

 

[Ducksgo*]

Etem - Getzlaf - Perry
Silfverberg - Perreault - Selanne
Winnik - Koivu - Cogliano
Beleskey - Bonino - Palmieri

Wouldn't mind that

 

[Sojourn]

Shocker.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

play silf or palms on the top line and stick with it. no winnik, no beleskey there please

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Wouldn't mind that

You don't say

 

[Paul4587]

Palmieri. Silfverberg isn't strong enough along the boards and unless Etem has learned how to use his linemates in the minors then I don't think he's ready for that role.

Edit: Maroon would be my second option given how awesome he is in the offensive zone. His transition ability worries me though...

Big minutes and BM finally sees Mr Long Beach has to offer. Fans can't argue with that Ducks Nation. @anaheimducks
