4:00 p.m. PST - PPG Paints Arena :
On Halloween, the Ducks waddle into Steel City, ready to spook the Penguins back to their igloos.
Gibby is my guy and I love Dostal but is this the season where Dostal is good enough and consistent enough for him to seriously challenge a fully fit Gibby for the starting spot. So far Dostal is on fire this season and don't see why you would drop him but surely Gibby won't want to be a backup?
I need to confess. I am from Europe and can't watch all games live. This season I managed to watch 4 games so far. I watched Dostal stealing a point from Colorado. I watched us suck ass vs LA. I managed to watch us valiantly losing vs the Rangers and I was able to watch the whole game against Jersey.
I see a pattern now. I think I stop watching games live for the sake of the team the next few weeks and see what happens. I am sorry I watched the games.
This guy is going to be up there with the best. He was absolutely fantastic again last night. Much better from the ducks in general. Still getting carved open far too often defensively for me but this was a good performance. I do feel there are some players not enjoying their hockey right now but hopefully this win lifts morale and they can kick on
It’s crazy that, to me, it hasn’t really felt great to be a Ducks fan since the Hawks series when we lost game 7. Felt like things started going to shit after that and it’s been a fairly depressing 8 or so years.
But with the youth coming through and a change at the GM level, things are slowly looking up. Granted, GMPV has been a little less exciting to have than I anticipated and there feels like an underlying issue resides within the camp (maybe something Lyubushkin said that resonates still)
Tonight was a solid enough win against a fairly underperforming Islanders team. Few shaky moments when we went 2 men down and they pulled one back. But we held our own and Dostal is really coming into his own. I’d even strongly push us getting rid of Gibby. He’s been through enough with us. Time to let him play somewhere new and fresh. And we could still pick up a decent return, I reckon. But a win was unsurprising with that fucking chode at the helm. Always enjoy sticking one to Roy. But, at this stage and with the way it’s been since the better days, we just need to grind out the wins, however they come, and keep picking up the points. It’ll get there in time.
Keep the faith, my fellow ducklings, the good times will come back again
I just need to point out, he is the best goalie in the league right now. After this game it brings his save% to 9.43 which leads the NHL. I hope they let him keep a starter role when gibby comes back.

Lets Go Ducks!
4:00 p.m. PST - UBS Arena :
The Ducks sail to Long Island, prepared to show the Islanders that webbed feet make the best flippers.
I'm not in Anaheim and don't know if the fingerboard and cross-bag will ever go on the team store website. I wanted to see if anyone could get me one and ship it to me.
Hi Ducks Fans,
I’m coming in from overseas and high on my sons wishlist is to watch a ducks game.
Is it cheaper to wait and purchase tickets closer to the date or will I run the risk of missing out?
Thanks for your help in advance 🙏🏽
Hi Ducks fans
We are taking our young family of 5 kids to Disneyland and wanted to catch a game on November 10th. Just looking for advice. We will need 6 tickets and trying to keep costs down. Is it better to wait for last minute tickets or buy tickets right now on ticketmaster? I can’t imagine a Sunday night game against the blue jackets being very busy?
Also anything fun that they put on for kids first games? For example a leafs game you can go to guest services and they give you a certificate that say it is your first game and a free pin.
Any good food to try at the arena? Or places nearby you recommend to eat?
I don't think people realize how consistent Z has been at getting on the board since entering the league. It's pretty wild that this is his longest drought. For comparison, Carlsson's longest drought is 7 games and McTavish's longest drought is 10 games.
In 180 games under Eakins, Z only went 4 games without a point 4 times. In 39 games under Cronin, he's matched that.
Has there been a magnet calendar for this season already? I have a half season, but don’t attend Kings games. So I’m not sure if I missed it, I’m also happy to buy one if anyone’s seen one at the team store.
