GDT: Anaheim Ducks vs the team formerly known as the Arizona Coyotes, 7pm PT (Game available on Victory+ , well not for everyone)

[branmuffin17]

That's a fair NHL level D-grouping, would expect to see a bit more solid defense overall. Good to see Minty able to skate.

Why wouldn't they put Nesterenko w/ McT and Sennecke? Fabbri instead???

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Mintyukov and gaucher back is great news as well. Also glad that sennecke is being insulated and not put with grinders (the zegras treatment).

I would have loved to see a Nesterenko-Z-Colangelo line.

And Hawaii! Ducks want more fans.

From NHL.com:

With the launch of Victory+ in September 2024, fans within the Ducks’ regional television territory (Orange County, Los Angeles County, Riverside County, San Bernardino County, San Diego County, Imperial County, Santa Barbara County, Ventura County and Hawaii) can enjoy games free of charge and additional content wherever they are on their preferred device.​

Welp, if I’m ever in Hawaii then I’m covered.

Looks like a much more physical lineup than Monday night.

Cronin likes to set up his top prospects coming back from injury to fail lol. It helps them appreciate being on a non dysfunctional team when they leave us.

Especially if you're vacationing in Hawaii during December!

I hope that goalie pairing is arbitrary and it's not Dansk getting another start.

I have been on the Internet for too long to not cringe at the use of "tendies".

Meh I used to cringe at "celly" and now I just don't care. Same with tendy

Because Fabbri is a lock to be in the NHL and Nesterenko is a long shot to make the opening night lineup at the moment.

I mean it makes sense of course, but Nesterenko feels like there's a lot more potential there...during preseason, why not give him a chance to play with some of those guys.

Fabbri, so far, hasn't brought anything really interesting that I've seen so far.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Could see them liking the idea of that 4th line once season starts…. But it feels crazy to say but our forward group is kinda deep…. Hopefully they can play solid

Gauthier carlsson killorn
Zegras mctavish terry
Vatrano strome fabbri
Mcginn Lundy/gaucher Johnston

Then you got guys like
Harkins, nesterenko, regenda, colangelo, meyers

That’s our version of an NHL defense. The bottom four forwards (4th line plus rotating scratch) is looking like Johnston, McGinn, Lundestrom, and Nesterenko/Gaucher/Harkins/Colangelo.

Anyone not in the So Cal region pretty much.

Curious does it not work with a VPN on or have you not tried that?

I'm curious because it won't work for me with VPN on, even if the VPN is set to a Los Angeles server. It tells me I am out of market.

Luckily for me, I am in market and can just turn the VPN off and it works, but something I noticed.

Leason, too (or maybe Strome?). Unless you are just assuming Terry is out so Leason is on the 3rd line.

 

[ScarTroy]

I’m sure there will be zero overreaction here if Sennecke doesn’t light it up tonight.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

He’s about to have a hat trick

I forgot about him but he has played “up” in the lineup (granted, preseason) for most of the games he’s played.

Looks like Zellweger will be sent down. This looks like it will be the defence to start the season.

I would be shocked if Zellweger were sent down.

Leason is above the entire bottom group.

A real one? Or a Ducks hat trick? (Turnover leading to a goal, an own goal, and an injury).

So would you /do you just watch games on ESPN+ or has this changed your viewing abilities overall?
