[la patineuse]

He was upstairs signing his new contract.

Good answer, good answer!

 

[la patineuse]

Doh! Link, please, if possible.

And Great GDT set up! Very nice JT.

I'm hoping to Hiller gets a shutout. Three days is long enough for both Souray and Beauchemin to catch their breaths.

It does say that Rakell is expected to be a healthy scratch, but it doesn't say why Getzlaf was off the ice.

 

[Quack Shot]

Getzlaf might had something come up last minute, kids or wife sick or something, or just was told to take the morning off or something. Hopefully he was busy signing that contract

 

[Quack Shot]

The morning skate was optional...

EDIT: Eric Stephens
@icemancometh
@t_betts94 Optional. Morning skates may all be this way in this condensed season.

 

[Ducks DVM]

Thinking of wearing my Clark from the game worn jersey sale.

That's a good one

My options :
Home signed Selanne
Home Niedermayer
Signed Camo Bonino
Retro white Mighty Ducks
Eggplant Mighty Ducks 3rd
Team signed away (actually has like 40 sigs, I take it to every face off fest)
1980 Team USA

Also a bunch of game worn practice jerseys.

I'm thinking Selanne. I usually wear the USA jersey against Vancouver but its the home opener.

 

[93Ducks]

Excited for this one! Feels good that hockeys back at the Ponda, also feels good to be back to Hfboards as well! (Tried not to post or lurk during the lockout haha)

Go Ducks!

He has a hair transplant appointment. Give em a break

 

[Sojourn]

No Getzlaf during practice makes me a little nervous, but hopefully it's not injury or flu related and we'll see him in form tonight.

I expect Vancouver to come out hard against Anaheim tonight. They were thoroughly embarassed in front of their home crowd on opening night, and I can't imagine that sits well with the players.

It was just morning skate he was talking about, and it was optional.

Thanks.

You'd think the Ducks' writer would make that clarification for us instead of being so vague.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Hopefully the 3 days off will help fix our PK, Expecting alot of energy tonight

What, and spoil the huge announcement at the game tonight?

 

[Mr Rogers]

I'd rather give Holland a chance between Ryan and Selanne, but I guess this lineup will work

Go Ducks!

At least Bruce can make the switch mid-game if he so chooses.

 

[Canadian Wampa]

Hey, just wondering, is it confirmed Holland will play?

 

[Sojourn]

Seems to be.

Lucky SOB. DM if u ever want to sell one of them. Nothing duck related here and everything i find online is too damn expensive.

Can the canucks stop the unstoppable force that is daniel winnick?

PK will either win it or lose it for us tonight. Ryan needs to play well.
