well dux basically have the same team as last season...we dont know about neidermeyer or selanne...but they still have pronger, beefed up defense w/schineder and they also signed bertuzzi. its def going to be a good season!
i'm pretty sure selanne and niedermayer are gone...my friend is a huge ducks fan, since the days when they were a disney movie...and he is really mad about schneider and bertuzzi signings.
i think selanne will be back. he's still got another good year in him...he's tasted the victory...he likes it.
why is he mad at the bertuzzi and schneider signings?
bertuzzi is a thug, he has some odd dislike of schneider.
he doesnt like pronger either. says the ducks are turning into goons...
haha first they were the joke - sissies to be exact - of the league, now they're the goons? LOL i dont think so.
i kind of tend to agree with him in some way. bertuzzi is a punk, and on the downside of his career. i actually think that was a very bad move for them to take him on. he's just going to weigh them down.
pronger is a good player, my buddy just has a thing with him...he doesnt like his attitude. my friend's all about team chemistry and intangibles, and i have to admit, most of the time, he's right. not that pronger isn't good though.
and i gotta say, i really liked the ducks back in the days of 03 when they were a team of motivated, driven players who played as a team. the ducks today obviously have superior players; however, i feel much less inclined to pull for them.
aww well i must disagree...i beleive this year they had more heart and soul in this season than any other. i think its in part due to scott neidermeyers leadership.
i dont know how bertuzzi will be welcomed...but all players have their ups n downs, bertuzzi made a wrong choice in the mortifying check to naslund...he served his time. doesnt mean hes NOT a good player....heck hes been a 90+ pointer. i think w/the support of the team, and should neidermeyer return he can def take some lessons from him.
pronger is an enforcer....but thats what defense is all about. doesnt mean he's a bad player...heck when i learn to skate backwards better i want to be the enforcer of my team! LOL
