Manson has been absolutely fucking awful this game, don't know why Carlyle split him off of Lindholm.

Yea I don’t know.  This team is just living under a fucked star right now.  Who knows what it is with Getzlaf.  I doubt it’s the play from the beginning of the game.  It swelled up, but it didn’t seem to be that serious.  He came back.  

Not great that we’re getting out shot 2/1.  This is a problematic recurring theme for the team.  

I think maybe concussion.  They said he won't return.

[UndertheHalo]

If it’s a concussion it’s sort of crazy that he came back at all.  So much for the concussion protocol.

That was a much better period.  3 on 3 now.  Here we go with that bullshit. 

[UndertheHalo]

Lindholm doing his best Getzy impression.  That man owes Ryan Miller a steak dinner.

Jesus why are they so retarded at 3 on 3.  Miller bailed them out again. 

[UndertheHalo]

Thanks for the 2 points Miller.

Miller was really great this whole game.  Awesome first start for him as a Duck.

Hopefully now that Silf has scored it will open the flood gates.

Missed the game again.  So how did we look?  Sounds like the GRK line did well.

Kase definitely looks good.

They looked super tired and outmatched in the second but came out stronger in the third, Miller was the star though.

Nice that Miller finally got healthy and a start.  And even better that he did well.  Him and Gibson will be a good combo.

This is really getting old...

Unreal.

[nate]

At least Kesler is skating a little bit, even though he looks really tentative.

 

[Pujols4MVP]

Remember that year where despite a healthy roster they had a super awful October & November yet still turned it around & won the Pacific ?

This year with an injured roster their above .500 after October. I'd say all things considered the team is playing quite well & when every one is healthy they might get on a great winning streak.

[Pujols4MVP]

Anyone think that if the Oilers had used Talbot less last year they'd be in 1st place this year ? That guy started 73 regular season games last year.

I'd be worried if Gibson ever plays that many games in a season, it all leads towards a off year. Its like a MLBer pitching 350IP in a season.

[nate]

I agree about Gibson's usage.  I hope he gets more rest.

Also, considering the injuries they definitely could be a lot worse off.  I just hope we get to see the top lines at least once this season all together.

[Thomas]

So I'll assume from your so far cursed season that one of the Ducks died today from tainted Halloween candy?

[HaloCory22]

Big game tonight. Expect a lot of goals.

porque no los dos?

[gotbeer]

WTF.  Frenchie is out of pregame again?  

[nate]

Only when the Rachel Dratch look alike is not there.  She must split time with one of the basketball teams or something.

[gotbeer]

Kase is on fire.   The GKR line is looking good.

[nate]

Love this, absolutely true, Lindholm has been so great to have back.
