Henrique has a history of scoring big goals and I could argue his last two GWG were vital to saving this season. The Buffalo OT winner ended a three game losing streak and the CHI GWG ended a two game losing streak. Both goals came in one goal games with his team sliding south. How is that not important?

This would be the time to strike against Vegas - maybe.

Yes Steve, I agree.

Would love to be a mind reader and know how Rico likes playing for the Ducks/living in O.C. I'm positive Murray would like to extend him, just wondering how receptive Rico will be to remaining a Duck.

It's been a good trade for the ducks. Rico seems to flourish when he's got good players around him. I mean most players do, but he just has a way of fitting in that that you don't see with every player. Like his line mates of Ritchie and Kase. Now that's a hodgepodge of a line. But he's been the glue.

Looking foward to a win tonight. This game should be tight all the way to the finish. I'm gonna say ducks win 2-1

Should be a phenomenal game tonight against the Golden Knights. The Ritchie-Henrique-Kase line is the surprise of the season IMO. As a MOBA player who averages 17 takedowns per game with a KDA of 6, the carry is real; respect.

Nevertheless, it's a team game and there's still ample room for improvement. Too many guys have been too quiet. Get it going.

Offense has to get going! Best way to do that against the speedy Golden Knights is to establish a forecheck. Furthermore, Karlsson has gotten the better of his old friend Lindholm. That has to change. Anaheim needs to play a 60 minute hockey game!

Yeah, that was a great 60 minute effort. That was a tough offsides call, but a win is a win.

A full 60 - great to see all the Duck fans in Vegas ... the Gibby injury ??? Is again problematic but let’s see how it shakes out ..

Devs fan here .. Glad to see Rico doing well for the Ducks. You got a special player on and off the ice. This trade was a HUGE win win for both teams as of right now. Sami has been a wonderful addition to the blue line for the devs.

GWG can be a dumb stat...when the GWG is scored at the beginning of the second period. Or when the team is up by two and a single goal is scored with a man pulled with two minutes left in the game. But the GWGs Rico has been scoring are no joke.
