Thread: Ducks Prospect Rankings 2023-2024
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>Yeah, I know about the CHL dman three-peat. Ducks have a bright future.

Two of the best evaluators of young defensive talent, Jim Tortarella and Ryan Hardy, have both singled out Moore as the real deal. Since then, he has been selected to World Junior team (ahead of more heralded prospects), has led Harvard in ice time, and was recently named their captain as a junior. He is not going to pile up points the way some in juniors can…but has delivered in every other way. It’s a hill I want to stay on…so yes, I still say Moore&gt; Luneau.</div></div>

As a Ducks fan, I'm kind of worried about Moore pulling a Thrun. I know there isn't the same kind of logjam at RD as they have with LD, but still. From the player's perspective, why not pick a spot where you have less competition?

Thread: C Option
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Taz</b></div><div>CarlssonSzn, from what I read on different ducks threads is that they were poor in defense and would benefit a stop gap for their young guys. I see Jackson Lacombe on a lot of ducks fans top 4, I mean the guy might be ready for NHL minutes but you really think he can handle a top 4 role immediately? Forbort is not an elite dman we all know that, but he got enough experience to play those minutes, and he can be a TDL selling option, and if not, he likely will walk in free agent market. You're probably right that the offer is too poor, but I think Forbort could fit with the ducks, take off pressure on young defensemen and let them enough time to developp, they can overtake Forbort when they'll be ready somehow during the year.</div></div>

Idk why people have Lacombe in their top 4, he doesn't really project that high. One of Zellweger/Mintyukov are expected to make the roster out of camp and play top 4 minutes alongside Gudas. We got Zellweger, Mintyukov, Hagg, Lacombe, Vaakanainen all competing for two spots on the left side already. There's no need for Forbort unless it's a cap dump and Ducks are getting a nice sweetener.
