Also, what are you doing up at this hour?

[Unholy]

Getzlaf in and Ellis instead of McBackup.. Could be a good game

[mightyquack]

Big game this, need 2 points, with M.Koivu out we should be able to contain that top line a lot better.

Hopefully #danellisproblems has a solid game in net tonight.

It's a playoff game! Go Ducks!

[Mooseduck]

Both Koivus could be a scratch tonight.
Lookout cookput Downtown Disney

Should be an interesting game.

[Elvstrand]

Hopefully we don't draft Ryder Getzlaf in 2029. He's gonna be lazy.

[dfk711*]

Get some payback for that 5-1 beating the Wild gave last time

[KelVarnsen]

2 must points tonight. Please no 3 point game.........

[Crazy8oooo]

Was hoping to see Emery get the nod...Here's to hoping Ellis does a lot better than he did in Tampa.

[McDonald19]

I'll be at the game tonight.

They better win! Emery or Ellis??

[Jesus Teemu]

Looks like Koivu's out again

[duckhead32686]

Koivu out again tonight. Get well soon Saku!

[dfk711*]

I would be more confident in seeing Ellis than Emery. Ellis played well enough for Tampa who doesn't have a great defense and play an up tempo style. Emery hasn't proven much yet other than he can win in the AHL.

[Hawktopus]

we should just run both goalies


at the same time.

[Jerky Leclerc]

Biggest game of the year.

[gratefulyours]

hope getzy got some sleep in.

gotta win this one.

go ducks!

[Ducksgo]

He will talk about the hiller situation as well as trades he is looking at roughly a 15 live interview To all who can watch or listen via online just thought ide share

[Twindad]

Can't do either, please post what was discussed (abbreviated).

[190Octane]

I can sum it up without even seeing or hearing the interview.

"We aren't working on anything now but we are always looking for opportunities to improve our team."

[190Octane]

I really shouldn't watch this game. I've had a frustrating day already and after the last 4 frustrating games it could just be a perfect storm. Not to mention that the game is on KDOC (LD) where for some reason Directv doesn't broadcast in HD. Irritating all around.

[imbatman]

bring out the rabbit ears.

[Paul4587]

One of many must wins we've played lately. I've got a good feeling about this game.

[dfk711*]

Weak penalty call

[Go_Krog*]

i guess youre not allowed to check guys into the boards anymore
