I don’t see Manson - tanev was my favorite comparison for him that I’ve seen

First time I've seen the comp but I think that's a great one. He hasn't reached Tanev's best yet but a good stylistic comp.

Tanev is a good call

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Helleson will have done well if he turns out similar to Dumoulin (but opposite handed)

Good comp

The irony being that I think Dumoulin eventually gets traded to open up a spot for Zell/Hell.

The logjam the ducks have in young d prospects is absolutely crazy and unprecedented to my knowledge. Not just the guys in the NHL but the many prospects in the pipeline even after trading Drysdale. We will be discussing their development and the ultimate decision of who to retain for the next 10+ years. Very likely the ducks end up trading some very good young d-men at some point (not soon) and let's hope they pick the right ones.

Yeah. Not looking forward to Shea Theodore 2.0

Yeah I think that's the next move to open up enough ice for all these guys, Dumoulin for a pick and a 7th D type

Thanks Cronin

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

He’s looked a lot better with cutter and fabbri.

 

[Deuce22]

Lovejoy is my comp for Helleson. Don't notice him that much, but is rarely out of position.

 

[hockey webcomics]

I LOVE BEATING THE LOILERS!!!!

One of my favourite playoff series was against them, 2017.
Specially the comeback in game 5.

 

[Son of Gib]

On the broadcast they were saying that Trouba has like 20+ more shot blocks in the time that he’s joined the team than anyone else on our team.

I think that contributes to our shot differential and explains why it feels like we are still bad despite outshooting teams

Trouba, my man!

 

[Hey234]

Lots of positives after a rough start to the game. Verbeek should get credit because Trouba has been a great addition for very cheap value. Helleson continues to impress and maybe McTavish's best game of the season. Gauthier looks so close to exploding in points. Terry is having a really good season. He's such a good player.

Leo still struggling, and he looks lost on the ice. The PP is embarrassing. They need to figure it out. They would easily have a few more wins on the season of it was better. Cronin still needs to be fired. Overall, good win and fun game to watch. More please

 

[Frosted Tips]

Wish they had brought this effort in yesterday's game that I was able to watch. Nice bounce back though.

 

[Sean Garrity]

Missed the game but watched dtmts, most importantly, did Cronin know why we won this game?

 

[heynowbababooey]

Holy shit, I've never seen a fanbase complain more about the officials than oiler fans. Apparently the oilers never lose. It's always the officials and Gary who has it out for them.

Helleson's icings per 60 aren't nearly high enough.

 

[Kalv]

We look better 5on5 than on the PP. What the hell are they complaining about?

 

[snowave]

I almost turned it off after being down 2-0. The second half of that game was fantastic by the Ducks... they looked like a totally different team out there. It gives me hope (well, except for the PP).

 

[Lord Flashheart]

Glad someone mentioned him. He had an epic intermission interview where, when asked what postives can he draw from the game so far (Ducks played like shit), he flat out said "nothing".

Also, while reading the Fowler thread I thought of Rev Lovejoy and how Fowler basically made this journeyman a top pair d-man, not to take anything from him, obviously he was very good complimentary player to Fowler.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

14 of 16 in the faceoff circle is one reason why he should stay at Center.
Unless they end up drafting Misa. Carlsson and Misa down the middle is too hard to pass up.

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

The Rev was never bashful about giving honest interviews. And he had one of the best nicknames in team history. How could you not love the guy?
