Post-Game Talk: #11 ⋅ CHI @ ANA ⋅ 5:00 PM PST

[Ducks DVM]

Taking my father in law who lived in Chicago most of his life for this one. Hoping the Ducks dominate, I'm trying to convert him (hasn't followed hockey since the 80's or early 90's)

Show him this

 

[HanSolo]

Really no excuse to lose this one but I'm not confident.

At the game tonight. Ducks beat sharks when i was here. Hoping 2 for 2

 

[Quack Shot]

Cutter Hat Trick tonight

Hello friends

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

Looks like a 4th straight home sellout to open the season. These guys have A TON of goodwill so far, they better improve before they squander it

 

[Hockey Duckie]

If we can just like, be better in offense or defense and not awful in both that'd be great thanks:

I tried to see if I could make a chart from excel for 2023-24 xGF vs xGA chart, but it'll be per game instead of per 60. xGF axis is from left to right; xGA axis is up and down. xGF average= 2.05; xGA average = 2.05. xGF median = 2.06; xGA = 2.03. Source of stats is Hockey-Reference.

We sucked last year at both and the trend still continues.

[Ducks DVM]

That was fantastic

 

[Ducks DVM]

Doumilin nice recovery.

 

[Goose of Reason]

Great first 2 shifts

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Wow. LaCombe stole the cross-ice pass in the D-zone and worked it up to other Ducks. LaCombe kept chugging on the right wing into the Ozone to receive the puck and tried to send a pass to the front of the net in hopes Mac would redirect it. Mac just missed it. What a great sequence for the Ducks!

 

[Arthuros]

Well, Sportnet+ sucks and the stream isn't working, so I guess I'm just gonna have to imagine this game in the meantime.

Oh man, I can't believe Player A did that!

EDIT: I'M IN

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Johnston went for a late check, but the puck was well on it's way through the neutral zone for the Hawks. Not a great move for Johnston.

Anaheim has been flying from the start of the puck drop. I'm liking this pace and attack.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

Minty is basically the 4th forward every shift, it’s great.

 

[Ducks DVM]

Chicago appears to have brought their ECHL affiliate.

 

[All Mighty]

Chicago is giving us plenty of space, just no finish yet.

 

[Doothpick]

I am mildly entertained. That's all I'm asking so this is nice.. so far.

A play leading to a goal.

They look better tonight than against the Pens so far.

And it looks like VIctory/KCOP fixed the feed glitches (see, no directional references---I'm learning. Men are from Mars, women are from Venus. Sheesh).

The answer to “is a Ducks’ ass watertight?”
