Well, we know Henrique won't be in the lineup.

 

[Leonardo87]

Well, we know Henrique won't be in the lineup.

Yeah pretty much. Lol

 

[SmokeyDuck]

Gibson and a bunch of cardboard cutouts.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

No GDT before our beloved East coaster showed up and only 4 posts about an hour before puck drop? I see we’ve reached our annual point in time where the regulars are either disgusted and/or reality has sunk in about where the team is this year.

 

[Ducks DVM]

“I’m too Getzlaf to...” is once again acceptable terminology.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Interested to see what the lines shake out to be with no Henrique. Stephens says Milano will be with SD tonight.

 

[bsu]

I'll watch until the gulls game starts I guess.

 

[Leonardo87]

I’m sorry for the horrible GDT will update lines and D once I know. This team gives no ideas till warmups.

 

[ReptilianQuack]

Im here. Even if im not, I dont miss a Gulls or Ducks game. Hell, I watch as much of all sports I can every single day.

Excited to get Mahura in the lineup. We all rather it was for Shats lol. But whatever. Shats either steps up, or gets more exposed.

 

[lwvs84]

I know it'll be 3rd pairing role, but it would be nice to see Mahura step up and show he's an NHL caliber d-man. Hopefully he plays well and forces management's hand into having him stick around.

 

[Leonardo87]

Updated Lines. Mahura with Shattenkirk, Grant scratched, Backes in, and Jones on Top line with Getzlaf and Terry.

I like that lineup even though it means mahura will be deferring to shattenkirk all night, which is bad. Hopefully he gets a little PP time.

 

[ReptilianQuack]

These are the guys we got, lets hope for more progression.

Oh no. Carry us young lad. Although Larsson has been an adventure in his own right lately, so I don’t hate it I guess.

Pleasantly surprised they have Backes in the lineup. Grantzlaf has been meh since he’s returned

Ducks v Wild part 2: electric boogaloo. Guess I'll be watching this one unfortunately because my bank account can't take another Target visit hit.

 

[ReptilianQuack]

Larsson has def had a rough patch. But the good weve seen in him, if thats his potential, its worth waiting.

Not clue what Grants problem is. Maybe cause he got his deal.

 

[McDonald19]

I like Backes in for Grant.

 

[Hockey Duckie]

It sucks to be shuffling around a lot of forwards to either give youth some time or just to rotate. I'm not sold on Steel. Silf and Heinen seem to be doing the yeomen's work. Hope Steel can continue progressing

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Larsson has def had a rough patch. But the good weve seen in him, if thats his potential, its worth waiting.

Not clue what Grants problem is. Maybe cause he got his deal.

Or it could be he's not 100% in hockey game shape? Grant was looking good before the injury, often getting his line 2nd line minutes. It sure would be nice to get Grantzlaf back instead of Grant.

 

[ReptilianQuack]

Were asking for a lot oit of Steel in that role. Agreed.
And the rotating roster never helps for chemistry. But thats where were at.

Who can play? Who needs time?
Rico frees a spot up.

 

[AngelDuck]

I don’t mind the lineup based on what we got

but that’s a pretty solid tank lineup

 

[Goose of Reason]

Bad pinch by Hakanpaa to start things off

 

[Paul4587]

Please don’t make me regret watching this.
