Former Ducks (2024-25 edition)

[JAHV]

To be fair, Binnington is just one of a long line of goalies who have wanted to clock Perry, and it's not like Perry's done nothing to provoke it.

Binnington does this every other game. You can practically see his eyes twitching from the stands.

Oh yeah, Binnington is also unhinged. I didn't mean to imply otherwise. There's a reason we're talking about him and not one of the other 273 goalies Perry has violated over years. Binnington is crazy enough to do something about it.

Binnington when he asks for his wonder bread sandwich, easy on the mayo, but they put a normal amount of light mayo instead.

Perry is the best. I miss seeing his antics on the ice. One of my all time favorite Ducks.

Noticed today that Connor Hvidston who a lot of people were surprised we elected not to sign had his lowest production in his post-draft seasons yet, from 65 points to 59 games in 22-22, to 59 in 53 in 2023-24, to only 56 in 68 GP this season

2022-23, Swift Current: 59 games and 65 pts is 1.10 ppg
2023-24, Swift Current: 53 games and 59 pts is 1.13 ppg
2024-25, Calgary: 68 games and 56 pts is 0.82 ppg

Hvidston helped Calgary get into the playoffs, when they missed it last season. Calgary doesn't have the talent depth Swift Current had last year. It's a two-man show for Calgary with Kindel-Tulk, Kindel has 99 pts in 65 games and Tulk has 100 points in 65 games. Hvidston is the team's third leading scorer. Even 7th overall pick from last year, RD Yakemchuk, went from 71 points in 66 games to 49 points in 59 games.

On the plus side, Hvidston FO% continues to improve. A 6'3, fifth round pick who could be a bottom-6, FO specialist ain't a bad investment. Although, if you get the org in trouble by calling the NHL that the org forced you to participate in off-season workouts when you're not under contract, then maybe the org doesn't want you any longer for not being a team player.

This is just speculation

Sam Carrick Awarded with Players' Player Award as Voted by Teammates

The 2024-25 season was a disaster for the New York Rangers as an organization, but it was a personal triumph for Sam Carrick.

I'm really happy to see Carrick have a good year and be recognized. It's a treat to see hard working underdogs hang on to a big league career.

Way to go Sam!

I see Manson still takes some of the dumbest penalties you will ever see.

 

[AngelDuck]

This reflects pretty well on Teemu

Insanely impressive. Teemu played in 2 separate “dead puck eras”.

Perry is also 50th all time in adjusted goals

Really goes to show how hard it was to score goals for a while not long ago

Unfortunately, I think that's a sign of old age.

teemu and PK played in the wrong era. just imagine if they had started their careers post-lockout?

What's Nick Ritchie's excuse?

Derek Grant and the ZSC Lions won the Swiss championship against Geoff Ward-coached Lausanne. (Again.)

Grant did not score any hat tricks this year. 4-9-13 in 15 games and notably got himself thrown out of game three of the final series for completely flipping out at the refs. (He hit the puck into the Lausanne bench on a late PK and was given a puck over glass penalty because the refs didn't see where it went. Screaming and wanton abuse of the plexiglass ensued. It was a whole thing.) I just assume this was partly pent-up trauma from all the years he had to deal with Ducks officiating.

Insanely impressive. Teemu played in 2 separate “dead puck eras”.

It's not just that, younger folks don't realize that he lost his warp speed with that Achilles injury. He was blowing by literally everyone at will before that. Which probably meant he missed out on quite a few breakaway goals a year as a result, and lost a step a few years sooner.

It is not crazy to think under different circumstances Teemu would have been even higher on the list.

So, you're saying he released his inner Patrick Roy?

Prime Selanne + Prime McDavid they would have like a breakaway goal per game just skating around everyone. Add prime Pavel Bure to their line and defense pair out there for their shift: Prime Niedermayer & Paul Coffey.

Bure was not as fast as pre-injury Teemu ... He cherry picked way more than Teemu to get his breakaways. Selanne was the better player, IMO.

 

[DavidBL]

Fowler with 3 pts in 3 goals for St Louis so far tonight. 5 pts in the series so far.

I disagree on the speed.

5 pts in game 3 at the moment
