Rebuild Rules: Getting Ducking Lucky is part of a rebuild. A key part for some.
DUCKS (6-7-1) at CANUCKS (3-12-1)
9 p.m. ET; SNP, Prime Video
Notice that new start time? 9PM ET. We're only 2 hours behind CoTU! Although... we're no closer to being as important. Also... is it Prime time already?
Back home again in the ROG. Saturday's game was also in the ROG. But not a home ROG game... because CoTU. It's Diwali Night in the ROG. Those can be fun. Even more fun if Bains scores. From the pressbox... scratching Bains on Diwali night makes sense, right?
Said it before, if there was a home game we'd like the Nucks to win this would be it. Or any home game from now on. Not that we are greedy for wins - the basement doesn't have the space for that - but a few more ROG wins could be good for staff, fan and team morale. Why not tonight?
Why not ask Lanky about that. We hope he can get back in stopping shape before the TDL.

Myatovic was recalled from San Diego. … Terry, a forward, and Moore, a defenseman, skated Tuesday, but Anaheim coach Joel Quenneville said neither is expected to play on its three-game road trip. … Mancini will replace Schenn, a defenseman, for the third time in four games.

The most important part of the NHL... merch.
Not just Rossi. What about DeBrusk? Ok, fine, he gets to the net more often, but...

Diwali celebration in the ROG... with a Scotsman? Why not!
