My, how things have changed.
At this point, one could almost field a pick-up team of Ducks castoffs - players who spent part of this season in Anaheim but, for one reason or another, didn't stick around. You'd be short a full team but would still have two units of forwards and defensemen, and two goalies.
Maybe they could even steal a game against Edmonton.
Just for fun, then:
Forwards:
Petteri Nokelainen-Andrew Ebbett-Evgeny Artyukhin
Erik Christensen-MacGregor Sharp-Kyle Calder
Defensemen:
Luca Sbisa-Brendan Mikkelson
Nick Boynton-Ryan Whitney
Goalies:
Jean-Sebastien Giguere
Justin Pogge

He betrayed his blue-blooded beginnings by graduating from UCLA in 2003, and welcomes any and all dialogue on the finer points of hockey.
