The Todd McLellan era in San Jose began with more of a crash than a bang against the Southern California rival Anaheim Ducks for Thursday night's home opener. San Jose Sharks captain Patrick Marleau pressured Anaheim Ducks captain Scott Niedermayer early in the first period, forcing him to play the puck along the boards. Joe Thornton came in with a hard check up high sending Niedermayer sprawling to...

What can I say about the Ducks'?? Besides the fact that they just traded my favorite Defensemen, Sean O’Donnell to the Los Angeles Kings, they are a pretty great team this year. The Ducks named their Captain today, taking the “C” from Chris Pronger and giving it back to Scott Niedermayer. That will probably make many people around the league very happy. For me, Scott is the better choice just because...
Coach Randy Carlyle names defenseman team captain, a role he had in 2006-07 when Ducks won the Stanley Cup. Chris Pronger, Ryan Getzlaf will be alternate captains. One of the biggest mysteries of the off-season was revealed Tuesday when Ducks Coach Randy Carlyle announced veteran defenseman Scott Niedermayer would serve as team captain this season, and defenseman Chris Pronger and forward Ryan Getzlaf...
The Devils, under Lou Lamoriello, will always be contenders. Despite losing Scott Stevens, Scott Niedermayer, and Brian Rafalski over the years, the Devils have always had someone to step up and keep them competitive. They tend not to go after the young free agents, but opted for seasoned veterans to fill in the holes. For [...]
from Dan Wood of Ducks Blog at the OC Register, Scott Niedermayer or Chris Pronger? Those seem to be the obvious candidates to serve as Ducks captain this season, but Coach Randy Carlyle wasn’t ready to make that call Saturday while watching a collection of the organization’s top prospects practice at Honda Center. “That’s something that I will discuss further with our management, with Brian Burke,...
It’s a month until Opening Night, and so as a countdown I’m going to do a short preview of all 30 teams, 1 team per day, in alphabetical order. So, we kick off the HockeyAnalysis.com countdown with the Ducks… The Ducks looked lost and fatigued in last year’s playoffs. While Scott Niedermayer and Teemu Selanne’s returns [...]
from Larry Brooks of the NY Post, Scott Niedermayer is getting his money back ... all of it ... every single cent of the $490,909.08 he was improperly fined by the NHL for missing Anaheim’s training camp last season, The Post has learned. As originally reported by The Post on April 20, the former Devil had been fined under Article 15.3 (f) of the collective-bargaining agreement even though he had been...

Last season, three star players decided that they wanted more time off instead of starting the season in training camp in September. I referred to this as a sabbatical from the NHL. Last season, Scott Niedermayer, Teemu Selanne and Peter Forsberg all took them. These are star players who are good enough to be able to gain an NHL job whenever they want one and thus are not endangering their
Bryan McCabe was great on the powerplay during the first half of the 2005 season. His play during that period earned him a spot on the 2006 Olympic team, made him a Norris trophy candidate and had many Leafs fans touting him as the next Al MacInnis or Scott Niedermayer. That play also earned him a massive five-year, US$28.75-million contract with a no-move clause from John Ferguson, Jr. These past...

Brian Burke stated pretty plainly that Anaheim will not be agressive during the free agency period that will be coming Tuesday, July 1st. That would largely be due to the return of Scott Niedermayer , combined with the expected return of Teemu Selanne. So, in terms of the whole FA frenzy, the Ducks won't be very active, but it's very possible that we'll put a couple of price tags on some boys. Among...
Anaheim Ducks defenseman Scott Niedermayer is looking forward to arriving at work on time next season. Niedermayer informed Ducks GM Brian Burke on Thursday that he will fulfill the final year of his contract and skate with the team during the 2008-2009...
