San Jose has been inconsistent in their last three outings, going 1-2-0 against the Ducks and Kings. If the Sharks want to be a playoff team, then they need to be beating teams below them. They are four points from tying 4th place in the division, with a game in hand against the 4th place Blues.

Ottawa and Detroit were idle for the past two days.

The draft position watch are going to a bit more volatile as teams on this list have made trades from their roster. I need to get this thread up before HFboards lock down again! heh

Trades thus far

From Anaheim: LHD Hutton
From Toronto: 2022 fifth round pick​

From Anaheim: RHD Hakanpaa and 2022 sixth round pick (own pick)
From Carolina: LHD Haydn Fluery (under contract through 2022, RFA)​

Interesting night tonight. Don't expect Fleury for seven days. We might see Curran in the lineup tonight... oh and Larsson. (I can't even preview it! Shotgunning it without review.)

Let's go, Ducks!

Would be nice to see someone like Curran, but it will probably be Welinski.

Drsydale-Manson
Fowler-Shatt
Larsson-Welinski

Never in my life have I wanted three defensemen to play the entire game more than I do tonight. That bottom pairing is a disaster.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Oh right, there's a game tonight.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

Oh right, there's a game tonight.

Should be fun for you. Now that the trade deadline has officially passed, tank squad will be rolling in in full force.

 

[Ducks DVM]

Oh right, there's a game tonight.

Is there?

 

[Static]

Imagine lundestrum is still out since it's not even a week from going under the knife.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Is there?

..isn't there? What am I missing?

 

[rlstine]

..isn't there? What am I missing?

But is there really?

 

[Mr Rogers]

Imagine lundestrum is still out since it's not even a week from going under the knife.

Too bad, he was great in that last game in SJ

 

[MMC]

 

[Static]

That lineup is very ugly.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Drysdale should play with Fowler and put Wellinski on 2nd pairing. Oh well i guess it helps the draft position.

 

[Arthuros]

Eurgh, that's about as bad as our lineup against the Avs a couple of games ago.

 

[KelVarnsen]

That lineup is very ugly.

That FW group is up there with the worst of all time for the Ducks.

 

[Leonardo87]

That center depth...

 

[mightyquack]

It's impressive that BM has managed to put such a putrid team together.

 

[bsu]

Terry has a big ass neck.

 

[Smirnov2Chistov]

Jesus Christ. Blame me all you like, I think I will tune out the rest of Ducks games and just watch playoff hockey when it’s time. Maybe we get lucky in the draft.

embarrassing lineup all around. Forward, Defense and even in goal.

 

[George Binks]

Ottawa won and only 5 points ahead of Buffalo boys

 

[ShadowDuck]

 

[EXTRAS]

It's time to give Simon benoit an opportunity on the back end...

 

[George Binks]

I don’t remember the last time a ducks lineup has looked this terrible.......that means a guaranteed win tonight.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Ottawa won and only 5 points ahead of Buffalo boys

Every time I think the Sens will move up in the standings they lose a few. Hopefully they keep it up. They are actually a middle of the road team offensively but an absolute wreck defensively

 

[DigiDuck]

They haven't even had preseason lineups this bad in a while...
