Does anyone know if the Ducks have extended any invites to unsigned players to come for a tryout at training camp? Or if this is something they keep private till its closer to the start of camp

Season ticket holders mark your calendars ...

Starting a new discussion of rumors for the 2010-11 season as we are closer to training camp than the offseason. Kariya is now out and not coming to the Ducks. Discuss new rumors from this point so forth.


This is the official AD Ducks Rumors thread which is the place to post and discuss all rumored trades and/or signings that involve the Anaheim Ducks. If you have read or heard something about the Ducks making a roster move then please post it here for all of us to digest and discuss.

Today was the Fedorin Cup at Anaheim Ice (charity event). I went and got really excited because I won the auction for the signed Michael Cammalleri Canadiens jersey for 80 BUCKS!! What a deal!

So for the people who didn't go, Getzlaf, Ryan, Marchant, Sbisa, Blake, and Dipenta played. So did Dustin Penner and Mike Valley the skateboarder. Former Ducks Jason Marshall and Sean Pronger played too, but I didn't see any other former Ducks, maybe I missed somebody.

So who went this year?

To Syracuse on an AHL contract

I know we heard that Igor Bobkov had been DRAFTED by the London Knights, but I actually didn't think him coming to North America was really in the cards. Apparently, (and almost predictably), I was wrong!

(Includes a picture of Bobkov working out in London, Ontario.)

I think this is pretty good news! Bobkov is listed by many as our best goaltending prospect. And having him working the North American ice early in his development certainly can't hurt!



Added: And, if Bobkov is going to be known as "Big Bob", does that make Murray "Little Bob"? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Most of you guys are saying the ducks will get 10th or 11th place. I believe since Neidermayor is gone that some of the defense will realize that they need to step up and become a number one defense thats what I believe. I also think since our captian is gone Getzlaf will want to be captain, hopefully he doesnt get captain this upcoming season, so he'll try to earn it by acting more mature on the ice also he'll try to lift his team by shooting the freakin puck. Selanne will score 35 goals most likely if he doesnt get injured, and other players i believe are going to play their game at their peak of their level. I think ducks will get 5th or 6th seed. Also Hiller will be number 1 goalie not 1a so there will be more consistency in the net. What place do you think they'll get?

St. Joseph's trainer heads to the NHL
Rick Burrill, who previously worked with the Portland Pirates, will join the Anaheim Ducks.

Hey all.... Long time since I've been on and I just wanted to pass along well-wishes for the upcoming season. There is still a fair amount of fans who wish the Ducks were still here. Take care of Ricky. He's a good guy and now you're building a nice Maine contingent in Anaheim with Chris Aldrich, Rick Burrill, Pete Peeters (former Maine Mariners goalie) and Doug Shearer (former Pirates Equipment Manager).

Since people (like me!) keep posting trade proposals in the Ducks Rumors thread that aren't really Ducks "rumors" we decided to make a thread so we can make any proposal for Ducks trades/signings!
Try and give your reasoning for why the Ducks should do the trade and why the other NHL team(s) should do it as well. Lets hear what you guys have to say. Please keep it professional and no bashing. Just realistic reasoning for your support or why you think the Ducks or other team would not do the deal.
GO!
