It's funny Cory. The Kings fan was actually talking shit to a friend of mine... Who's a Kings fan. Can we conclude that kings fans are cannibals now?

Favorite thing about McGinn; dude goes to the dirty areas. He's a better skater than Maroon by a mile, too.

he's not an all star or anything but he's a lot better then Pat Maroon.  Good nose for the net and a strong forechecker.  Can pop some goals in.  He should fit in well with Rakell and Perry.

Ridiculous price for a rental, but damn they look scary now.

No way we would need to include a pick.  I honestly wouldn't be too thrilled with Vats for Ladd straight up.  

PP points don't count towards +\-

I thought Ritchie looked pretty ineffective today. Seemed a bit out of shape. I saw him huffing it a couple times on the way to the bench.

Lindholm has been great. I think he's rounding in to the top pairing defenseman the Ducks need.

I think it's hilarious that our society is so obsessive that we feel compelled to micromanage the weather. I wish you all the best of luck in ending the drought by sheer force of will.

Just so you know AO.  I just idled my car for 20 minutes today for no reason, so that the global warming would keep the weather at 80+.

Theodore won't have the defensive skill of Lindholm, 2 very different types defensemen.
They will likely sign Lindholm because none of the others can do what he does defensively in shutting things down.
 
Theodore & Vatanen are offensive minded D-men.
Fowler started out as a offensive defenseman but turned into more a 2 way D when his offense regressed.

Skinner from the Canes or Nuke from Dallas

Big Bear Lake is too cold to swim in. 

You're right. We're all going to die. 

The Bryzgalov debacle was just awful by Burke. It's one thing to help out a player by facilitating a trade. Giving him away, to a division "rival" (I used quotes because the Coyotes were, well the Coyotes) was some of the worst asset management this team has ever seen. Some people forget how good Bryz was in those first four years with the yotes.

Also I haven't said a bad thing about Lindholm in a while.

Want objective? Lindholm is one of the top possession defenseman in the league, top rated for QoC (quality of competition), and is only 22. All of this after the start of the season with the pylon that was Bieksa, who has admittedly looked better recently. Your Lindholm hate is nearly as subjective as anything on puck of a feather.
 
Edit: holy shit, I just skimmed the article. He uses multiple stats that support his point. He also only uses 5v5 stats.
 
Nate, come on. Your analysis has consisted of: "he looks bad" or "he's a turnover machine," which is pure conjecture. 

Cory is taking the AO El Niño approach with the Ducks... Sadly you're probably not wrong about the result against the Caps.

Or it's because he wasn't an attention seeking doucher. I've never understood wearing your jersey to another team's stadium, particularly when it's a rival.

2-4 inches expected for next week with several feet expected in the Sierras where it's needed most. Self ban for AO if we get less than two inches?
