Former Ducks (2024-25 edition)

but Verbeek really wanted Eakins out of the org asap the season prior.

This isn’t supported by anything, PV didn’t offer Eakins a new contract, that’s it, not like he fired him or blasted him on his way out. He also could've easily moved on after 2022-23 but he instead chose to pick his option up

Have some Flyers fans in my dynasty league and heard them talking about how Torts basically said Drysdale needs to learn how to play hockey.

Around the 11 minute mark but not quite what he said, sounds more like Torts thinks there's a lot to work on to get him back to pace and take his game to the next level. But it coming right on the heels of praise of Rasmus Ristolainen of all people.

Yikes. I know Torts has his preferences, but that's still not a good sign for Jamie.

I dunno. I think it's more of a factual report because Jamie's essentially missed a season and a half, with last year being split between two orgs. Conflate that with Anaheim and Philly implementing two different defensive schemes, Jamie has to unlearn the man scheme and learn the zone scheme. When compared to Risto, it's difficult to argue that since Risto will be turning 30 years old and Drysdale is 22 years old.

Imagine going from San Diego to Russia. Poor guy.
