We are 7 days into Ducks Training Camp, so far I am pleased to see players from John Gibson,Adam Henrique,Ryan Getzlaf,Corey Perry and few others have appeared at this yearly Gathering....Ducks along with all Ducks Fans I know are itching for the Puck to Drop and Redemption to begin for 25th Anniversary season. Watching some of the Clips reading from those who attended the Training Camp scrimmages to Preseason games they completed. What I see is Ducks assembling a team that will be experince with abit of youthful injection of speed,Readiness and Fighting Spirit to finish our enemies in each game we face them night in and night out.
Now I know all of us understand that Kesler may or may not be ready and the chance we see a Young Duck be able to earn a spot on the roster is possible. I like the fact we have Sam Steel,Kevin Roy,Chase De Leo,Troy Terry,Marcus Pettersson and few others who could possible be a key to the Ducks success in their quest to reclaim the Stanley Cup. IF the Speed factor can kick in once the Puck Drop...our Ducks can hit the ground running....Set the Tone by imposing their will from day 1. It's not wishful thinking more like expectations we want in advancing the "Ducks Cause". Speed and will give us equal advantage against our enemies and rivals on the ice. That is something lacking in 17-18 season.
Health is a key....Injuries our Ducks faced in first 3 months of our 17-18 campagain put us into a disadvantage. Kesler,Getzlaf,Perry,Eaves and Fowler with Gibson faced injuries be it long term or short...all in all Ducks had to literally fight their way into the Stanley Cup Postseason. Sadly they were unable to put up a fight when our Rival San Jose swept them in the First round. Much as we want them to succeed and win the Stanley Cup we must and know well that Health for the Ducks in important,vital and ABSOLUTE. IF entire roster can be able to ensure they can withstand any onslaught endure the injuries maybe what happen in season prior a Different outcome would be bestow our Ducks instead of the First Round Sweep that stings till this day.
These factors out...Speed and Health are Key to Ducks revival and redemption. As 25th Anniversary draws closer....We must not Panic and assume the Worst. Ducks know that for Bouncing back after rollercoaster season of 17-18....They must assemble 25th Edition that can have a mix of not only Speed and Health....But Youth,Experince and skill to overcome any obstacle No more........NO LESS.
