  1. I have them with 2 Moose. Theirs, and the one they got from Boston in the Kase trade.
  2. Nothing happening. Signing the 4 players we did slightly above nothing, but still. I was more irritated with the Ducks screwing up the list of games they're rebroadcasting with this shutdown. They advertised the May 5 broadcast as the 1997 game 7 quarterfinal against Phoenix (home game), but instead broadcast the game 6 win in Phoenix. This was the first ever playoff series win for the franchise, and the atmosphere in the Pond was electric with about 10 minutes left in the game until the end (I was there, I know). I was really hoping to see the game again. But no, didn't happen. Screwing up a simple broadcast seems a microcosm of what happens with the franchise in general. Rant over.
  3. Last night (Saturday) Prime Ticket replayed the 2003 game 6 series clinching win against Dallas. What a game. About 6 minutes left in the 3rd, Dallas scores to tie it up, but the goal is disallowed after a lengthy review. A minute later Dallas does score to tie it up, again on a very controversial "goal" call after another review. With a minute left in regulation, Ducks score. ARROWHEAD POND going insane. Mighty Ducks (#7 seed) win and advance to the Western Finals. Ducks knocked off both the #2 seed (Detroit) and #1 seed (Dallas) that year. I remember how exciting it was. Great to see Selanne, Kariya, McDonald, Jiggy, etc. Knowing they're playing some of these vintage games in their entirety has me checking the channel more frequently. fyi
  4. I don't think so. Yesterday Governor Newson said "stay in place orders" could last 2-3 more months. Probably the same for New York.
  5. Samueli's are paying all full/part time staff their salaries through the end of the month. Class act.
  6. "Technically" he has 26G, since he scored in the St. Louis game that was postponed. He'll get credit Wednesday when the game is completed.
  7. You're right. I apologize. I read it as when we receive the renewal paperwork (in March), not when we have to decide. I was wrong. And I've had 3 cups of coffee so no excuse that I'm half asleep. My bad.
  8. No, this renewal date is similar to the last couple of seasons. Also, select-a-seat won't occur until after the renewal deadline. Then the club will know what seats are available.
  9. I save all my renewal paperwork. Last year, and the year before that, the postmark date on the renewal paperwork was February 7. You're wrong.
  10. Kase is not Perrys replacement (he's been a starter since 2016-2017) imo. Could argue Terry is his replacement, and Perry was bought out to make a permanent roster spot for him. I know Terry has underperformed when compared to last year, but the point is both players have similar stats, while the salary discrepancy is $925,000 vs $8.625M.
  11. Feature article in "The Athletic" on Larsson by Eric Stephens. Very good read!
  12. I have the William De Vaughn version titled: Be Thankful for What You Got I had no idea Curtis Mayfield performed this song. Man, they sound similar. Great song.l
  13. Fine, lets move him to LW. I think Rakell is better than Perry. I think Max Jones should play top 6 over Perry. Perry can play 3LW at 8.5M and Ritchie can play 4th line. That leaves Comtois in San Diego. As much as I love Perry, I fully support the buyout. We're not winning the Cup, and I for one would rather see the kids skate.
  14. That's just not true. I really don't care if BM dumpster dives. Heck, he may already have with the pending (rumored) signings of Grant and Holzer. But getting rid of Perry opens up room on RIGHT WING, which right now the Ducks are loaded at. Of course the Perry buyout opened a spot for one of our young RW players.
  15. He only gave permission to talk trade with 6 clubs.
  16. He's not "milking" anything.
  17. Agree. Ducks have an article also, and they mention the "lengthy" recovery that's necessary. Let's just hope it improves his daily life.
  18. I may be wrong, but if he retires, doesn't he forfeit his remaining salary? Go on LTIR until his contract runs out. He still gets paid and while on LTIR the team gets cap relief. No?
