Awesome to have someone covering Ana.
So what's the lines shaping up like this yr so far. I have Getz and Ryan so talk to me. Expecting big big things from these guys.

perry, hiller for me! that's why these team writeups are awesome, because you get first hand knowledge of the team from someone watching the games, and if you're on the opposite coast chances are you don't see many games from teams like ANA

Glad to have someone covering the Ducks!

A little too early for line combo's I'm afraid, but regarding Getzlaf I expect ~90 points this next year. (Assuming 82 games) If he gave 100% effort every game he could crack 100 points. However, he doesn't show up every game. Regarding Ryan I think you can expect low 70's again. Similar to when Perry went from 72 to 76. I just don't see Carlyle sticking with the RPG line all year due to the offense being so thin otherwise. He loves to mix up the lines and double shift players who are playing well that certain game. My best guess with no more signings (besides Selanne) would be:
Beleskey/Ryan - Getzlaf - Perry
Blake/Ryan - Koivu - Selanne
McMillan/Blake - Cogliano - Sexton/McMillan
Beleskey/Gordon - Bonino - Parros

However one of Etem, Palmieri, DSP has a shot at making the team.

As far as Perry goes, I might expect a little drop-off but not much. If you take a look at his numbers:
His first 45GP 23G 45Pts 80PIM
His last 37GP 27G 53Pts 24PIM
So basically if he stays out of the box, he knows how to put the puck in the net. Bear in mind though that for the last few stretches of games RPG were playing 26+ minutes a night. I don't expect that to continue unless the Ducks are fighting for a spot again towards the end of the season.

Jeff,

Great to see someone talking about my two favorite things: Hockey & the Anaheim Ducks. I don't ever post on these forums, but this was worth a thought. I too watch every game, was at all of the cup finals games, and like many readers, I own a few Ducks on my dynasty team...no list in my signature sorry. I have some thoughts on a couple prospects, and would love to get yours:

Peter Holland - seems to me that he has 2nd line upside (as do DSP & Etem...those as wings they just might get a shot at the top), with Getzlaf & Perry owning the top line...Koivu has 2nd line next year, and Cogliano has every chance to pick it up the following year.

Sami Vatanen & Justin Schultz - these guys are essentially fighting to take Visnovsky's spot when he leaves right? But, so will Luca Sbisa. Fowler is essentially a lock on the top pair as long as his defensive game develops. Worst case scenerio Fowler turns into Marc-Andre Bergeron; better scenerio Mike Green; best case Scott Niedermayer

Matt Beleskey? - I am not sold on this guy. He has had too many chances with too little success. I know he doesn't get a ton of time with Getz and Perry, but when he has, he hasn't capitalized. We need someone else to step up, are there any of the young guys capable? As you said, Carlyle loves to move Ryan down, either to the 2nd line when one of them is injured...or some are saying to the 3rd line with Cogliano.

I'd love to hear anything and everything.

Ethan

I'd have the lines as:

Ryan-Getzlaf-Perry
Blake-Koivu-Selanne
McMillian-Colgiano-Palmieri
Beleskey-Bonino-Parros/Gordon

Sexton's in the mix too.

Welcome, looking forward to your contributions.

Peter Holland - I agree has 2nd line upside. From everything I've read he's not consistent enough yet. He doesn't skate hard every shift/game. He won't make the team this year. Hopefully continues to develop. Getzlaf has the same problems and turned out pretty good though.

Beleskey - I am not sold on this guy either. He never clicked with Getzlaf and Perry, and injuries have derailed him when we needed him the most. He has a quick shot, but otherwise I haven't seen much. If he doesn't come out of the gates flying I could easily see him not finishing the season on Anaheim (whether it be by waiver claim, trade, or demotion). I have him slotted for the 4th line.

DSP - Not gonna lie, didn't know much about him till this off-season. From everything I've read though he sounds exactly like what we need right now which is why I say he has an outside shot at making the team. Potential 2nd liner, probable 3rd liner with great 2-way game and grit.

Fowler - really, really high on this kid. Don't forget the playoffs in which he was one of our best defenseman both offensively and defensively. No way does he turn into MAB, and he's in line to take Visnovsky's throne. (Though he doesn't have the cannon Vis does, but then again neither did Niedermayer)

Schultz I mentioned I think will be in the NHL after this season barring any setbacks/huge signings. I believe Foster only has one year left on his contract.

One thing I forget to mention. The Ducks internal cap hit is about 56 million.
