[Anaheim4ever]

Compete for Wright, Lambert and Savoie.

 

[Leonardo87]

Yeah Bob, listen to the captain, fill some holes dammit. Lol.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Getzy pointed out being excited to work with the new assistants in the interview. Wonder if his patience was running thin with the staff last year, lol

one step away from "I'm glad bob fired those chimps with clipboards who ran the powerplay"

 

[2faded]

I have no idea who the guys bargain bin bob signed are but hopefully we can get a guy who will put in some effort

Hopefully...

I think Getzlaf loved seeing Zegras and Drysdale out on the ice. He's just an optimistic and loyal player. So far we've lost D Fleury and F Heinen. Losing Heinen gives Volkov a possible third line possibility.

Comtois - Zegras - Rakell
Terry - Rico - Silf
Jones - Lundestrom - Volkov
Des - Grant - Carrick
Steel
​

Who are we going to trade away for a roster spot when we do make a trade for two top-6? I don't see us sneaking Steel, Volkov, or Carrick down to the AHL... okay... maybe Carrick. I guess we can run only 6D so we can carry 15F.

I assume Rico would be gone... and isnt silf going to be injured for majority of the first half.

No he'll be good to go for opener.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

No he'll be good to go for opener.

Oh well that works... hopefully hell go back to the Silf of old...

I think

Jones - Lundy - Silf could be a pretty solid 3rd line for us

 

[Anaheim4ever]

I would like to seem them get an upgrade over Max Jones or Sam Steel. Or just play Steel as 3rd line LW

If you put together a lineup with players playing on their correct Wing:
Comtois/Zegras/Rakell
Henrique/Getzlaf/Terry - If you swap Henrique for Jones in this line you don't want Jones in a Top6 role making mistakes.
Jones/Lundestrom/Silf - Jones low hockey IQ doesn't fit with these smart defensive forwards
Grant/Steel/Volkov - offwing is natural for Russians.

or
Steel/Lundestrom/Silf
Jones/Grant/Volkov

 

[DavidBL]

I'll be honest. I still don't get the love for Lundestrom. Hos offense is very limited. He has a decent shot and has great puck control but he Doesn't do anything with it.

Murray might have screwed his development
When they drafted him he was described as high floor low ceiling Center and the Ducks had known that Kesler would be out for a while to start next season.
and of course Lundestrom goes straight to the NHL.

I still think that's a decent description but a lot of posters here seem to have a much higher regard for him than Steel. I just don't see it. Id rather have the guy with the higher offensive upside with better players.

I think jones fits well on that line... hes a forechecker.... and hes solid defensively... if he could learn a bit from lundy/silf. A lot of good checking lines have a good fast/hitting forechecker on them

A lot of posters love Lundy/Terry and hate steel

Even tho very little separates all 3 of them.

 

[Gliff]

I would be funny if Landeskog didnt post the same video but they also put other players faces on there.

Lundy who got 1/3 of his points in 1 game.

Anyone who thinks Lundy has top 6 potential needs to give up that hope real fast. He is not a scorer. He never has been and never will be. His best offensive season at any level was 21 points in 43 AHL games.

 

[bsu]

We hope Lundestrom becomes Danault.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Or Pahlsson (25 to 30 point C who is elite defensively).

 

[DavidBL]

I am fine with all of that, I just don't see why we are trying to give Lundestrom all the offensive opportunities while we try and turn Steel into a checking center....

Damn, no Des for NY.
