This kid's confidence is through the roof. It's what our kids need.

He is on pace for 65 points, good numbers for a rookie, but he just needs to learn to play better in his own zone, where he has been terrible.

Great goal followed up by a POS Beagle pounding Terry on the ice. It was not worth a 3rd round pick to lose Deslauriers who would have leveled that POS. Ducks have gotten so soft now, since Manson and Des have been traded.

They will still be a tough opponent and Jarry can steal games. The wildcard is the officiating also. They lead the league in PP differential(go figure) and refs refuse to call penalties against us. This could be an important factor. In the last 2 games against them they lead 7-2 in the PP opportunities.
It’s hard to draw many penalties when your team never has the puck lol, our penalty differential makes sense given our horrible possession numbers

Do you think the Ducks will look to add toughness through free agency, maybe even bring back Delsauriers?

I think so. But They do have Jones and Carrick but are more light weight physical tough guys with more skill than Deslauriers.

What’s more critical is getting Zegras and Terry skilled support since they should be on separate Lines. Could then throw a big body power forward with them who is physical.

Few thoughts:

f*** Mike Yeo, he’s always been one of the worst coaches in the league and constantly has a confused look on his face like he just sharted.

Secondly, about the Ducks, the Michigan goal is played out and lame. Zegras wants to cry about what happened at the end of the game? Don’t poke the goalie up 5-0. That was a learning experience for Zegras and Terry. Zegras dove and tried to sell the cross check and Terry took the beating from Beagle. Also it’s no coincidence this incident happens right after Deslauriers and Manson get traded. The fancy stat cult followers will never understand that part.
 
Big game at 3 pm -- Pens at Avs. Minn should be a tough one for the Canes tonight.

Florida getting waxed by New Jersey. I guess if we were fans of them we’d be sitting there questioning whether or not they’re good lmao.
So true. Some analyze every bad game to death. We can't play playoff hockey because we had a poor effort against the Piles yet lets throw out the 5 games in a row that we beat playoff teams. SMH.

All teams have stinky games (Avs have lost twice to Arizona this year ) I just hate that they have to have these games against our biggest rivals. I’d trade those Hurricanes and Tampa wins for wins over the 2 scum teams that we don’t get up for.

I would never trade those wins because then the question would be about us beating good teams like earlier in the season. Beating good teams bodes well for the playoffs.
