Speculation: 2023-24 Roster Thread

[KelVarnsen]

Could be worse.....we could be the Jets, Flames, Canadiens, or Senators.

Crazy the Habs don't have a national game but the Yotes do.

Not really shocked by this. We were historically bad last season, and not even Zegras could have saved viewership.

I think once the Ducks are competitive again we will see around 8-12 national broadcasts.

 

[12ozPapa]

I’m shocked we have 3. Small fanbase and a losing team. We shouldn’t have more than 1.

Probably more about getting the opponents more variety in who they play

They are obviously avoiding Canadian teams except Vancouver.

As for us – we were historically bad. We earned 1 game like the Yotes just because they're sorry but those extra 2 are purely because of Zegras, IMO.

 

[FiveHoleTickler]

LOL…

Hope all three on TNT and none are on ESPN.

2 are ESPN+ exclusives, 11/14 vs Nashville and 3/19 vs Minnesota. The other is on TNT, 3/31 vs Vancouver

 

[Mr Rogers]

I am not annoyed about this at all whatsoever. much prefer our guys to the national broadcasts

With ESPN+ can choose the broadcast thank goodness, except when the Ducks are playing the Rangers, Islanders, or Devils If I’m in my home area.

Ahlers and Hazy are not too bad, compared to some of the tire fires out there. lol.

Let’s not mention, Leah. I was actually fine with her till she didn’t even realize that game against San Jose was over.

This actually had me second-guessing like there was something I missed when I was watching.

And there you have it...

And there you have it...

“If Karlsson scores here this one is over,
All the pressure on Stolarz”

No comment. Lol

She was really out to lunch here from top to bottom, lol.

Would not be surprised if they pair up Bucci and Cally for those two ESPN+ games. Zegras usually does his fancy stuff when those two are broadcasting. Lol.

 

[darkwingduck]

We’re a great team to put on national broadcasts. We always play terribly and is a good chance to showcase the other teams’ scoring capabilities.

So now we will be a better team by not being on ESPN

 

[DuckDuckGetz]

LOL…

2022-23: "Let's put the Ducks on national television!"

2023-24: "Never mind!"

 

[TopShelfWaterBottle]

Ridiculous…. Now you have to pay for multiple media streams just to watch a sport

They obviously don’t realize the everyday person is struggling with inflation/gas and income the past couple years

So much for bread and circus

They realize

They don’t care, they know most nhl fans are crazy so try to take advantage of that

 

[FlyingV09]

I was looking up some stats and found it a bit crazy that the last time we had a player who played most of the season and had over a point per game was Getzlaf in 2017-2018….it’s been a while.

Who’s the next one to do it? I’d probably say Zegras but a case could be made for a few others as well.

Either way, this teams desperately needs a lot more offense.

Spectrum decided to AX espn.. lol

It’s up to you how much you want to pay for what you want to watch. I cut the cord some years ago. Couldn’t be happier.

I'd say it probably depends on the lines... next time it happens, multiple players could get it (if Carlsson develops into an elite C before anyone else has over a PPG season). If the pairs are Terry/Carlsson and Z/McTavish, both lines could have (at least) a guy over PPG depending on how the PP units are structured/deployed and how much more scoring goes up. It'll be interesting to see what kind of systems Cronin and McIllvane set up in Anaheim and San Diego respectively and how it affects numbers.

 

[FiveHoleTickler]

Bored so I took a look at the depth chart on Capfriendly and here's how it's listed:

Henrique - Zegras - Terry
Vatrano - Strome - Killorn
Jones - McTavish - Silfverberg
McGinn - Carrick - Leason

Scratched: Regenda & Agozzino

Fowler - Drysdale
Hagg - Gudas
Vaakanainen - Lyubushkin

Scratched: White

Gibson
Stalock

 

[McDonald19]

Well it’s now September, and no Zegras/Drysdale contracts.
