GDT: We're Definitely Maybe Turning a New Leaf (@Tor, 4pm Pac)

[HanSolo]

"Carlyle said he had hoped to avoid pulling Gibson from the game, but as the Jets’ continued to exploit the Ducks’ porous defense, he had no choice but to replace him with Chad Johnson after Winnipeg scored six times on 14 shots. At that point, it was a move of mercy."

Ducks return from 9-day break and give up 9 goals in loss to Jets – Orange County Register

On top of having an outdated failure of a coach, we also have a liar.

Good fit with the less than honest GM.

True. I just think it's equal parts hilarious/infuriating that we have video evidence of him trying to continue to hang Gibson out to dry, with the man between the benches for the SN feed stating that Getzlaf was bickering with him to get him pulled and he calls it a "mercy move"

Like f*** off you .

 

[Getzmonster]

I think we win this.

Did we lose yet?

He's a stubborn red ass who probably thought he would toughen up Gibson by leaving him out there to be humiliated.

Currently +275 underdogs. Put some money on it.

Nonsense, we will ride Kesler to victory.

Side note: I assume it's still the Holzer/MDZ show tonight? What a mess.

 

[terranraida]

Haha remember that stretch in December when I thought we were gonna do well and not get a high draft pick?

Good times. Let's chase that 1OVR together, randy.

Shore Kesler and Eaves

Has to be the slowest line the ducks have iced since the lockout

Del Zotto Holzer with that Kesler line in inevitable Carlyle fashion could be better than watching MASH reruns Definitely funnier

 

[dracom]

oh so now Randy decides to go back to the pairings that worked.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

LOL @ that 4th line/3rd pairing combo. The only thing that could make it worse is Gibbons instead of Shore, who I legit feel bad for tonight.

I'm glad Rico is back on the wing though, let's see if it helps him.

 

[DigiDuck]

I understand wanting to keep the Gulls competitive, but there's no reason to have another game of MDZ/Holzer.

Doubt those forward lines survive the 1st if we look anything like we did in Winnipeg.

 

[KyleJRM]

This feels like one of our “get outshot 40-25 but only lose in OT” specials

 

[pbgoalie]

Could this game be over faster than the Jets game?

 

[Deuce22]

I was afraid he was going to scratch Grant. Glad that line stays together. Hope the 4th line plays less than 10 mins. Lindholm-Manson is a thing again!

 

[pbgoalie]

My pregame

 

[ducks8]

According to hazy, don't be surprised to see Miller in tomorrow.

 

[Exit Dose]

I wish we had Jones and Terry back up here. Those two were really starting to click with Grant.

 

[Terry Yake]

lols so much for putting kesler on LTIR

Icebergs ahead!?

Full speed ahead, were indestructible!

Ahh, the way he’s always played it’s no surprise he would try to play.

But when your wheels don’t move anymore, sometimes someone has to park you

 

[Terry Yake]

is it over yet?

Wait, did that really happen? Getz was arguing with RC to save Gibby?
