On this episode, we break down the breaking news that Adam Henrique was placed on and cleared waivers, as well as Trevor Zegras being called up from the AHL. We discuss whether or not the Adam Henrique move makes sense, why the Ducks did it, and how they move on from him now. Afterwards, we break down the Zegras call up, what line he will play on, and what to expect from him in his rookie season. Enjoy!

Zegras….let’s go! It would be unfair to expect Zegras to be the answer to Ducks woes but he’s an exciting player to watch for sure!
I think the Ducks do not have a good system and if there’s one, we’re bad at executing them! We’re so bad and inconsistent…I’m sorry but I’m still a Ducks fan for life. Go Ducks!
I am not a fan of Jacob Larsson off-position game and Kevin Shattenkirk’s lackadaisical play. Somehow I’m curious with Kodie Curran, how is his game?
Here comes Zegras! I would of rather the Ducks call him up before making any drastic roster moves like the Henrique situation. He needs to put on a line with guys who can shoot like Henrique/Rakell/Comtois/Silfverberg. I think he’ll look fine out there. He hasn’t looked out of place at any point this year.
I see no harm in scratching Hakanpaa for Drysdale for a few games as well. This team can’t score and Hakanpaa doesn’t help that. Drysdale has earned a shot and helps the offence. Great to see Mahura! Love that guy.
The Ducks will play as well as Gibson allows them to. We’ll see how tonight goes.
At a young age with flashy moves, hope Zegras hold his head up in the NHL and not get injured. I remember rookie Nathan McKinnon’s game against the Ducks and Colorado thought McKinnon was being targeted, and they protected him.
Zegras’ nickname is Ziggy / Z
We traded away Theodore to Vegas just to save Vatanen to trade him for a guy who we released on waivers. Grade F for Murray’s asset management
What type of contract would Rakell likely require? What would his leverage be, Perry has more goals this year … and they are paying him not to play for the team
great cast, thank you. the ducks are "starting from scratch". that was such a sad and accurate statement.
The Ducks could have placed most of the forwards on Waivers. Unfortunately, Adam was likely trying to do too much which turned into him not being able to do much with such a bad supporting group of team mates. Their are guys on the team with less points and worst plus/minus. Ducks just want to clear some salary cap – Adam is still a great player and will make make it somewhere if not in Anaheim.
