| Pos | Role | Name |
| C | 1 | Ryan Getzlaf  ActiveRyan Getzlaf was kept out of Monday's practice with Team Canada for "general maintenance." Getzlaf has two assists in three World Cup games. He also scored a goal and three points in three pre-tournament contests. Sep 26 |
| 2 | Ryan Kesler ActiveRyan Kesler doesn't feel the 2016 World Cup compares to the Olympics. "It was weird," Kesler said. "I thought there’d be more of a buzz in Toronto. There wasn’t … It just didn’t seem like there was a buzz. If you didn’t know what was going on, you wouldn’t even know teams were playing. That’s the only thing I was really disappointed with." By contrast, Kesler considered the Olympic experience "unbelievable." Of course, the World Cup and Olympics aren't mutually exclusive, but there is uncertainty as to whether or not the NHL will participate in the Olympics in addition to the World Cup. Sep 28 |
| 3 | Rickard Rakell ActiveRickard Rakell is reportedly seeking a contract in the ballpark of $24 million over six years. Rakell had 20 goals and 43 points in 72 contests last season. The Ducks are believed to be interested in a long-term deal, so it might not be the term so much as the total value that's the sticking point. He's a restricted free agent and with the preseason already underway, obviously the sooner Rakell and the Ducks can find a common ground, the better it will likely be for both sides. That being said, there's an additional complication as he's recovering from an appendectomy. Sep 29 |
| 4 | Antoine Vermette ActiveThe Anaheim Ducks love the versatility of off-season acquisition Antoine Vermette. Vermette is able to play all three forward positions and could slot in as the number three pivot or on the wing of the top two lines. "He can play all three forward positions," new head coach Randy Carlyle said. "He’s a 55-plus percenter in the faceoff circle. Left-hand faceoff guy. He can play power play. He can play penalty killing. He can move up your lineup, he can move down your lineup. And he’s going to see lots of ice." Look for 35-40 points and 50 penalty minutes from the ex-Coyote. Sep 26 |
| 5 | Nate Thompson ActiveAnaheim GM Bob Murray indicated that Nate Thompson underwent surgery last week to repair a ruptured Achilles tendon. "We'll be lucky if we see him before the trade deadline, to be honest with you," Murray said. "But he healed faster from the shoulder. This is a tough injury and a tough blow." Thompson missed the first 25 games of the 2015-16 campaign because of off-season surgery to repair two labral tears of his shoulder. Jun 15 |
| LW | 1 | Andrew Cogliano ActiveAndrew Cogliano doesn't blame former head coach Bruce Boudreau for the Ducks' playoff failures. "This isn't on Bruce," Cogliano said. "I think a lot of guys need to know where they're at and figure out where we went wrong. A lot of them have been here for a while. I'm not just talking the captains. We don't have a lot of young guys in the lineup. … Today's a much different feeling leaving the rink. In those [previous] years there's been a sense of hope. Today, there's zero feeling like that." May 1 |
| 2 | Nick Ritchie ActiveNick Ritchie (wrist) took part in Friday's practice. Ritchie was struck by the puck during Wednesday's game, but fortunately it doesn't seem like that led to a significant issue. He had two goals and four points in 33 contests last season. Sep 30 |
| 3 | Mason Raymond ActiveMason Raymond has inked a one-year, two-way contract with the Anaheim Ducks. Raymond can earn $675,000 at the NHL level or $225,000 in the minors. He had four goals and five points in 29 contests with the Calgary Flames last season and another 15 points in 15 AHL contests. At his height he had a 53-point season with Vancouver back in 2009-10 and a brief resurgence in 2013-14 with Toronto where he recorded 45 points in 82 contests. Jul 4 |
| 4 | Nicolas Kerdiles  SidelinedNicolas Kerdiles is dealing with concussion-like symptoms. The Ducks have placed Kerdiles under evaluation as a result and won't put him into any practices until he's over his symptoms. Kerdiles had 15 goals and 27 points in 45 AHL contests in 2015-16. Sep 26 |
| RW | 1 | Corey Perry ActiveCorey Perry registered two assists in Team Canada's 5-2 win over Team USA in exhibition play on Saturday. Perry was added to Canada's roster to replace the injured Jeff Carter. In addition to it being an opportunity for him to represent his country, this is also allowing him to play at a high level with Ducks teammate Ryan Getzlaf ahead of the start of the season. That might allow them to hit the ground running in 2016-17. Sep 12 |
| 2 | Jakob Silfverberg ActiveJakob Silfverberg has been added to Team Sweden for the upcoming World Cup. The event will take place in Toronto in September and it's a nice accomplishment for the winger as Sweden has a deep squad. Silfverberg had 20 goals and 39 points this season, including 11 goals in his last 14 games while he chipped in with five assists in seven playoff games. He should be closer to the 50 point mark next season if he remains healthy so do not forget about him in pools. May 28 |
| 3 | Jared Boll ActiveJared Boll has signed a two-year, $1.8 million contract with the Anaheim Ducks. The contract is one-way, which means that Boll will make the same amount even if the Ducks send him to the minors. Boll was previously playing with Columbus on a three-year, $5.1 million deal, but the Blue Jackets bought out the final season of that agreement. Boll had three points and 61 penalty minutes in 30 contests last season. Jul 6 |
| 4 | Ryan Garbutt ActiveRyan Garbutt's goal was the game winner Saturday. Garbutt's goal gave the Ducks a 3-2 lead and they won 5-2 as Anaheim became the first team in the series to win at home. "That was hard work," Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau said. "He raced down the boards and beat them to a puck and then finished it behind the net. That’s just hard work and determination and that’s all him. When he plays like that, he’s very effective." Garbutt came to the Ducks from Chicago in exchange for Jiri Sekac on January 21 and the move paid off in spades on Saturday. Apr 24 |
| D | 1 | Sami Vatanen ActiveSami Vatanen has shown up at the Ducks training camp. Vatanen played in the World Cup so he will get a few days off before returning to the ice as he did not make an appearance Saturday at the Ducks training camp venue. The Finnish defenseman has to be disappointed with the fact that Finland failed to win a game at the tourney but will try to surpass 40 points for the first time in his career this season as he has had 37 and 38 points in each of the last two seasons despite missing 26 games over that span through injury and rest. He should be drafted in the middle rounds of deeper pools. Sep 25 |
| 2 | Cam Fowler ActiveCam Fowler was a bit surprised that he wasn't traded based on all the rumors he heard going into the NHL Draft. "You hear your name tossed out there. I've heard that before even at recent trade deadlines, but this time with the position the Ducks are in and some of the salaries, it just seemed like it was pretty real," he said. "I was 100 percent prepared for something to happen and was honestly pretty surprised when it didn't. It's one of those things where I want to be prepared for it to happen, obviously I love playing in Anaheim and being a Duck, I feel like I have a great relationship with [GM] Bob [Murray]. I just know that his hands are tied a little bit with what he needs to do. I just have to sit and be patient and see what happens." It seems like he could be staying with the team now because Anaheim was seeking a top-10 pick for him and that didn't happen. Jun 29 |
| 3 | Hampus Lindholm ActiveHampus Lindholm won't attend Ducks training camp until he signs a new contract. Lindholm is reportedly looking for an eight-year deal worth more than $48 million dollars. The 22-year-old had 10 goals and 28 points in 80 games last season. "Our plan is to report to the team once we have a contract signed," agent Claude Lemieux said. "Until then Hampus is training in Sweden." This isn't shocking news, but it would be surprising to see the Ducks start the regular season without Lindholm on their blue line. Sep 29 |
| 4 | Kevin Bieksa ActiveKevin Bieksa will play in Game 2 against the Predators on Sunday. Bieksa had only 15 points this season in 71 games this season, but did have 99 penalty minutes as well as 108 blocks and 152 hits. His presence will be valuable on the Ducks blue line. Apr 17 |
| 5 | Simon Despres ActiveDefenseman Simon Despres is looking to remain healthy this season as he had a couple of concussions in 2015-16. Despres was concussed in October after a hit by Tyson Barrie in the fifth game of the season and sat out 42 games at the time. The symptoms returned in late March after a game in Montreal when he was hit again. "Well, I was sensitive to light," Despres said. "Sensitive to noise. More emotional. I had headaches. Dizziness. Close to fainting. Stuff like that. ... It was a challenge. It was dangerous." Despres is currently healthy and has changed his number from 24 to 6 in hopes of a new start. He had only four points in 32 games last season so we definitely do not recommend the veteran defenseman in fantasy pools. Sep 25 |
| 6 | Clayton Stoner ActiveAlthough Clayton Stoner (upper body) is healthy enough to play, he might not on Wednesday. Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau is still weighing his options. Stoner hasn't participated in a contest since April 10. Apr 27 |
| 7 | Korbinian Holzer ActiveKorbinian Holzer has agreed to a one-year, $700,000 contract with the Anaheim Ducks. The agreement is one-way, so Holzer is guaranteed that salary even if he's sent to the minors. He had three assists in 29 games with Anaheim in 2015-16. Jul 13 |
| 8 | Josh Manson ActiveJosh Manson (head) didn't travel with the team to Nashville for Game 6. He isn't expected to be ready to return until sometime in the second round at the very earliest. For that to happen the Ducks still have to eliminate the Predators with another victory. Apr 25 |
| G | 1 | John Gibson ActiveJohn Gibson made 35 saves on 38 shots in a 4-3 overtime win versus Sweden at the World Cup of Hockey on Wednesday. He was making his first start of the tournament after Matt Murray sustained a thumb injury on Monday night. Team North America needs Finland to defeat Russia on Thursday or else they won't be in the semifinal round. Sep 21 |
| 2 | Jonathan Bernier ActiveThe Toronto Maple Leafs probably won't end up receiving anything for trading Jonathan Bernier beyond saved cap space, but at the same time there's a chance they'll end up with something substantial. The Maple Leafs dealt Bernier to Anaheim for a conditional pick, but the problem is that the conditions requirements state that Bernier's team has to at least make it to the Stanley Cup Final AND he needs to start in half of the games. Given that Bernier is being brought in to serve as the backup, it would likely take an injury or disappointing season from John Gibson for Bernier to end up playing a central role in the playoffs. Earlier we said "Bernier's team" rather than Anaheim because if the Ducks trade him and Bernier plays in at least half of the playoffs games while his new team reaches the Stanley Cup Final, then the Ducks still owe Toronto compensation. However, if Bernier meets the game requirements and his team does win the Stanley Cup, then Toronto will receive a second-round pick. If they lose in the Stanley Cup Final, then Toronto receives a third-round pick. So under the right circumstances, Toronto could end up with something noteworthy from this trade. Jul 19 |
| 3 | Dustin Tokarski ActiveDustin Tokarski and Yann Danis gave up three goals apiece in Wednesday night’s 6-1 loss of the Anaheim Ducks to the Los Angeles Kings. The losing goalies had a busy night. Tokarski fended off 25 shots with Danis turning away 17. Neither netminder was able to crack the 900 mark in save percentage, but Tokarski came closest with a 0.893. At that, he was slightly more productive than last year with the Montreal Canadiens where he netted only a 0.878. Sep 29 |
