Player Discussion Troy Terry

[Deuce22]

Is he snakebitten right now or what?
Is it a slump? Coaching?

Not really snakebitten. I think it's a combination of things. First, the Ducks spend 70% of games in their own zone so scoring opportunities are few and far between. Second, the PP has emphasized getting one timers for McTavish lately and Terry hasn't had many PP shots. Third, opposing D are more familiar with his moves and are doing a better job of keeping him to the outside.

This, plus he’s trying too hard, because his linemates are either streaky (Henrique) or have been in a funk (Zegras), or are a rookie who sometimes is lights out/sometimes a half-second behind the speed of the game (McTavish.

Look at those crossovers the entire way up the ice, love to see it.

Has there been a word on what happened? I'm a bit worried, but hopeful that all is ok.

All I've seen is that it was for a personal matter. I can't remember - is/was his wife pregnant? Hopefully it's a "good news" personal matter, like Vatrano's recently.

Out again tonight

Yeah she is, with them not saying anything about it by now I’m worried something happened.

 

[duckaroosky]

At least they are still expecting. Was really worried, I didn't want to speculate but leaving suddenly during a game and missing the next one your mind starts to think the worst.

Take all the time you need Troy!!!

Yes. Baby being premature could be a dangerous thing if it's to early.. Terry is a true leader.. family comes firsr

Agreed, still very scary and risky but I'm sure they're in good hands and I hope it all ends well. Would not even blame Terry if he had to sit out home games as well.

 

[Static]

Wonder if she went into some false labor

Yes.. We all ducks fans know. Remember JS Jiguere? Family comes first..

It is a scary situation. I think the baby isn't due for several weeks, so even though it sounds like it is a risky pregnancy, it must be a relief that she didn't deliver yet.

 

[TopShelfWaterBottle]

Staying home is good for the family and the team. Zegras ams gibby should stay as well and consol him

 

[Arthuros]

Not sure if anyone's heard anything about Terry's situation with his baby, so hope he's alright.

Where do we see his contract landing?

Terry will get 5 x7

 

[DavidBL]

Terry will get 5 x7

Why would Terry sign that?

 

[Gliff]

Terry will get 5 x7

Literally no reason for him to sign that.
I expect 8 years and between 7-8 mil.

 

[ADHB]

Based on comparable contracts, I’d expect 8 years between 7 and 7.5 per.

Verbeek is not giving out 8 year contracts.. He said he isn't already. We will see

 

[DavidBL]

No he didn't. He said he doesn't like them. And didn't want to for 28 year old Lindholm. Terry is 25. Unless there is a quote from him I've missed.

 

[Gliff]

No he didn’t.

And there is a difference between giving an 8 year deal to a 28 year old defensemen with 9 seasons of miles on his legs and multiple long term injuries to show for it, and a 25 year old with only 4 seasons on his legs and no major injuries.

Terry has had 2 major injuries already.. yes hes young.. But he had had a busted shoulder and busted knee.

Our definition of major is clearly not the same. Terry has not had to have anything surgically repaired. Pretty sure Hampus has had 2 surgeries for labrum repairs.

And surgeries aside, are you actually going to disagree that Hampus had a hard time staying healthy?
