Something should be done about your attitude, Homie has someone with a one way line to the Lord, you should speak to her.

Simple. A 7 PM start in Anaheim is at 4 PM local time. People won't even be out of work yet.

Man the Ducks look terrible.... They don't deserve to win this game if they keep missing these easy goals... Can definitely see them wanting to trade for goal scoring this off season due to their unfathomable lack of it. I'd offer up whatever they think necessary for Fowler. Not sure if I'd give up Ennis but ship Girgensons or a 3rd rounder out of here no question. Problem is they may want Ennis for the proven scoring

Oh, look. James Neal got hit with an elbowing penalty on a pretty dirty play. What a surprise.

If Fowler is offered for Ennis, Murray pulls the trigger.

I think he's incredibly overrated but hard to argue if the price is low enough.

Well looks like we have 1 first and 1 2nd this year and about 5 3rds... Murray better trade at least 2 of his 3rds for players or to move up in the 1st or 2nd round

If Bruce Broudreu ever gets to coach again, I don't see why any armchair wannabe coach sitting on his couch shouldn't also be considered for the position. Can't be any worse. The guy is a career failure and worse of all, has always had top level talent to boot with both the Caps and the Ducks. Track record of unconditional failures

Talk about a choke job. How many goals could they have scored in the last 6 minutes? 4? 5? But either had the puck skip over their sticks just a bad shot, or an opportune stick lift by the Preds.

Bruce is a great coach. But he does have a bad track record in important games. I think this falls more on the players. The Ducks can be the best team in the league on some nights, and blah on others. They need to learn to bring it when it counts, and they're forwards aren't getting any younger. Maybe go the SJ route and strip the captaincy. Luckily they still have a lot of young promising players coming up, with a slight re-tool they could still be a top team.

At least now I won't have to pick between my two number two teams. Now I can root in full force for San Jose to take down Nashville.

I think after we see The results the GM's are going to vote to change it again

I just don't understand how hard it is to put a rule in that a team can't win the draft lottery twice in five years or something like that

Because it is not needed. So what if they have won it a lot. It hasn't helped them at all.

This will most likely never happen again.
