The Official 2020-2021 Anaheim Ducks Thread

Yeah, this one threw me off.  3 pm start.  Didn't catch it till the second.  

We still suck.  Good thing is, not as much as the Wild announcers.

[gotbeer]

Bargain Bob at it again, looking for a clean peanut.  It's so meh, that non of the hockey news outlets are reporting it.

 

Ducks Acquire Volkov from Tampa Bay

These announcers suck.  If it's a national game, the announcers should be somewhat neutral.  These announcers have so much homer in them, it's hard to hear them with so much cock in their mouths.

so it was . . . hockey porn?

[gotbeer]

Mfer.  Don't care if it was an accident.  Ducks need to bury a Blues player and/or get into a fight over that hit on Drysdale.

[gotbeer]

Pussy ass team that likes to act tough. No response to your future getting buried.

[gotbeer]

An OT win?  Hopefully it ups Manson's trade value.  Man, St. Louis is going to be struggling to make the playoffs now.  Dropping 2 to the Ducks is not going to help their cause at all.

[gotbeer]

Oh no.  We suck again.  

[arch stanton]

Even Minnesota and Vegas couldn't hang with the Avs right now. 9-0-2 and outscoring opponents something like 48-18 and dominating possession and shot share. Miller isn't the first goalie to have 40+ saves against them and never have a chance to win

Well, a sad ending to the season has come. Fox sports kicked a number of the Ducks telecasts off to KDOC and KCOP,  (Not on AT&T's broadcast list). That combined with I'm going to be out of town for a few more telecasts means goodbye to AT&T and hello Sling Blue (When the playoffs start.)

I still have a bad feeling about being able to see all the Ducks games next year when the new telecast agreement kicks in. I'm not subscribing to more than one provider at a time.

Hey, does anyone know a way to get KDOC or KCOP free? And no, I'm not putting an antenna up.

[Lou]

I told you guys back in 2011 this would happen.

Digital antenna's are easy to put up. You could even just plug it directly into your tv.  I put a larger one on the roof, and couldn't be happier.  It was definitely worth the effort.  You get the broadcast a few seconds before cable/satellite.  Which is awesome big game time, since you see what happened first, then you hear the reaction through the neighborhood about 5-10 seconds later.  Also the direct signal is a better quality than over cable/satellite.  By a wide margin.  Which is weird.  Another benefit is unlike the stations that cable/satellite provide as your local stations.  There are literally hundreds of stations you can get via a digital antenna.  

But yeah, hopefully it doesn't affect nhl.tv via vpn.  Which is probably the way to go if you don't want to go the antenna route.

[gotbeer]

Um. Welcome to the Ducks Ruskie?

[gotbeer]

At least watching the young guys was kind of fun.  But another loss.  Volkov has potential.  Was a little victimized in the end on D.  But up until that point looked good.  

[gotbeer]

Bah, wasted OT loss.  Young guys looked good.  But still not enough.

Anaheim Ducks Demote Trevor Zegras

Inevitable.  They didn't want to burn a year of his entry contract.  Plus the way the Ducks are playing, helping the Gulls to a playoff run and playing in the playoffs is probably more beneficial.

[deepdrive]

I especially liked the comment on the BS of the Ducks being transparent with the fans.

Yeah.  They should have just say, we suck.  We want him to help the Gulls to the playoffs.  

[arch stanton]

Maybe they sent him down so they could use his lineup spot to audition tradebait heading to the deadline. If I was Sakic the one Ducks player I’d be interested in is Hutton. They could really use a reliable 3rd pairing guy

Done.  Send me the info and I'll have Tank set up a lunch.

But I agree.  I think Hutton is a prime trade candidate.  Teams will want reliable depth right now, and Hutton is that, is cheap, and on an expiring contract.

 

[gotbeer]

One of the better games by the Ducks tonight.  Everyone was getting in on the action.  I think they said something like 11 players were on the scoresheet.  

[gotbeer]

Meanwhile, our idiot GM.

NHL Rumours: Toronto Maple Leafs, Anaheim Ducks, Buffalo Sabres

[deepdrive]

Yeah, we want to keep Manson because...  I have no idea.

No ones going to give us a first round pick for Manson unless we give them our second.
