Former Ducks 2021

[Terry Yake]

I think there is some truth to this. I don’t think Perry was done but I also think he is a player who gets energized by certain situations.

100%

perry would not be playing the way he has in montreal if he was still a duck

Poor Bobby. He would have been traded to a playoff team.

Can you sum it up? Anything particularly interesting there?

Only real interesting thing is the year he thought he could stick with the Ducks, he broke his wrist before the season started, and by the time he came back in February, he was too far behind everyone else.

 

[Goose of Reason]

I liked Roy a lot in his stint here and remember being disappointed when we let him go

 

[McDonald19]

Kevin Roy has some skills for sure. If he was a couple inches taller or a step faster he’d easily be in the NHL right now.

 

[TopShelfWaterBottle]

Hope he does well his biggest knock was always his size but I was def a fan

Montour was just traded again to Florida.

Montour was just traded again to Florida.

And somehow Shane O'Brien was the one who broke the trade.

Boy did he put on some weight.

Montour moved for a third round pick. Boy did we sell at the perfect time.

Florida is going to be good for Montour. Buffalo is a graveyard.

 

[McDonald19]

From last in the NHL to a cup contender. Good for Montour.

Was poking around the stats of some Ducks of yore and I noticed the banner image on Adam Oates's nhl.com profile.

 

[Paul4587]

Unless Tracey becomes something that Montour trade could end up being a bad move for both teams. I think he will do well being out of Buffalo though, good for him getting out of that organization.

I’m sure every teams fans say this, but funny how often we hear this on the Ducks forum
Theodore wouldnt have done what he’s doing
Palmieri
Perry
Ritchie

maybe our coaching just sucks

The difference is Perry is a long time NHL veteran with not many years left and doesn't want to play for a rebuild and he wants to get another cup.
Ritchie was playing very well during the season that Carlyle was fired.
Palmieri was already showing signs of breaking out before he was traded, in his final year with the Ducks he had 29 points in 57 games which is half a point per game.

I mean, the Perry thing is simply that he lives for the moment and wouldn't be the same player on any rebuilding team. He wasn't even this in Dallas during the regular season, I don't think its a coincidence he's playing well given the playoff-esque nature of this regular season.

I also don't think Ritchie or even Palmieri applies either. Palmieri just was blocked and kept up his efficiency with more opportunity. Ritchie is just the same guy altogether.

 

[Opak]

I hope Montour kills it in Florida. I still think that he's gotten an unreasonable amount of hate for his play, including his last year in Anaheim.

At least he gets to play for a legitimate coach for the first time in his career. The latest iteration of RC was not one, and none of the clowns in Buffalo would qualify as NHL assistants, let alone head coaches.

 

[Mr Rogers]

I absolutely could see a resurrection to Montour’s career. Q knows exactly how to use players and will put him in spots to succeed.

He's about done. Injuries sapped his shot and his skating. Another one we moved on from at the exact right time.

Unfortunately the exact right time would have been pre expansion, then we very possibly could still have Theo.
