Second line got worse, 4th line got a lot better, assuming we get last year's Maroon.

With that logic our top line and 2nd line got better if we get last years getzlaf and perry and kesler and silfverberg

Nope.

By my logic, the second line got better when a player like Beleskey was put on the line (it did, Ritchie is Beleskey-lite at this point), and Maroon will hopefully be better with a center who hits and can cycle (Thompson, Getzlaf and Perry were doing neither when he was on the top line, Horcoff doesn't hit, and Santorelli is too small to do either reliably) for the first time this year. Maroon is a complementary player who has been put with players he doesn't mesh with at all so far this season, this will be a chance to see how much has been him and how much has been the lineup.

If Maroon is still the same player, the fourth line got better (although I'd still prefer Jackman/Friberg/Noesen/Wagner/Lucky winner from Section 213 Row M Seat 13 on the RW over Stewart). If it's him that's fallen off, it won't. Let's see what happens.

Really hope gibby is starting

 

[Fighter]

3-2 Ducks

 

[DarthYenik]

It's been so long.

Gibby, is that you?...

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Second line got worse, 4th line got a lot better, assuming we get last year's Maroon.

Stephens also wasn't sure if Maroon would slot in in Ritchie's spot, felt Boudreau might want to leave an effective fourth line alone.

 

[lindholmie]

Really hope gibby is starting

got an notification from NHL saying he is. 7th straight

 

[George Binks]

Knowing Bruce he will let dobby start against his old team....or technically Andersen could start also

 

[McDonald19]

2nd line is weak. Not that they were lighting it up with Ritchie.

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

Do I remember seeing Andersen dressed during the last game? Do we now have 3 healthy goalies?

 

[Pen13]

Nope.

Stewart has been one of the best players and deserves more minutes, give your head a shake

Freddie was the back up last game.

 

[George Binks]

Lets go ducks!

 

[Jack Bauer DAMNIT]

Do I smell a str.. Do I, should I even say it?

 

[duckaroosky]

Oh hey there's a hockey game tonight

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

Freddie was the back up last game.

That's what I thought. How long before the argument over Freddie vs Gibby starts?
