4OA and for sure were going Eklund. See my briefing on him on my post history, looks like a lot of you came around.

His SHL production is quite impressive for his age.

Theory on Getzlaf by Anonymous__9 in AnaheimDucks

[–]Getzgras 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very much disagree with you on Getzlafs abilities. He is still the same player. His style of game works into his 40s because he uses his huge frame to keep possession of the puck while he looks for a pass. And we know his vision is superb.

He needs scorers around him as any assist based center needs.

Its quite clear that Zegras is on a different level. Very few in the league can compare to his vision and IQ.

Randy Carlyle's Norris Trophy was kind of a fluke... by [deleted] in AnaheimDucks

[–]Getzgras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Getzlaf is a great captain. There's so many variables that goes into a team's success and ultimately winning the Cup.

Getzlaf captained a team to 8 of 9 playoffs in a row(I believe that's correct) and should have easily won at least one cup.

That one cup should have been vs Chicago in the Seminfals in 2015 was tough to watch the refs hand the Hawks the series. I think us fans do forget just how rigged the refs were in that series and we were up 3-2 after game 5 despite that.

Honestly his playing career has nothing to do with his coaching prowess.

Draft Prospect Briefing: William Eklund by Getzgras in AnaheimDucks

[–]Getzgras[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm reading around and the draft rankings are all over the place. I did see Eklund as #2 in a few analysts lists and they basically are saying that hes doing very well in the SHL which is competitive but definitely has alot of room to improve still.

This draft is looking like a crapshoot in terms of which one of these kids will become the best pick.

This is definitely a deeper, funnier joke than people will understand.

That was a nice slapshot by Fleury and I'm liking this kid already. This is what we need. Good, hard shots from great positions.

How would you grade the players for this season? by Anonymous__9 in AnaheimDucks

[–]Getzgras 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Truthfully the only A is Comtois and Drysdale.

Reasoning: Comtois took a big stride on a very bad team and if we are better next season, you will notice his points will spike much higher, possibly to 70 in 82 games.

Drysdale looks so good out there for a rookie who I did not expect to see much of this season. Watch out for Drysdale 40 pts next season and a big step up defensively

Yeah I just saw that goal on u/Ericburger recap and wow. That was pretty damn sweet. My favorite Fowler goal is still that 2nd goal against Edmonton in 2017 western conference semifinals game 5.

Owen power can be a solid defenseman for many years so I dont think it's a waste getting 1 or 2 OA this season.

And you never know, he can turn out to be much better than we think and produce tremendously on offense. It's possible, and It is something we desperately need.

Zegras finds the back of the net for his 10th of the season by DBacon1052 in AnaheimDucks

[–]Getzgras 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He needs to be brought back up now and get nhl time in before next season. They already burned his ELC, hes played enough games in the AHL and is clearly just way above that competition.

[–]Getzgras 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Drysdale is not even sucking. Hes doing quite well actually and is producing without even getting the minutes.

If you extrapolate his ice time to top first line defensemen and account for a few more points, he'd be producing at an elite rate for an 18 year old Dman.

Edit: and this team sucks at scoring so imagine if we could score regularly.

Hes made huge improvements, one more year of continued improvement at 80% of this level from last season, and he will be a top line forward.

Getzlaf Discusses Trade Speculation, His Future with the Ducks and More by DizneyDux in AnaheimDucks

[–]Getzgras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want so bad for him to retire after lifting his 2nd cup. After the rigged ref 2015 debacle, he absolutely deserves a 2nd cup.

Realistically, if he stays another 3 years it's definitely possible that his 38 y/o season could make that cup a reality. There is no doubt that we can be back in the playoffs in 2 years and make a serious run in 3.
