By Michael Walters

The Anaheim Ducks begin the season with a much different looking team than the one which finished last season. Some of the main stays on the team like Hampus Lindholm, Josh Manson, and Rickard Rakell were traded away last season. The captain Ryan Getzlaf decided to retire from the game.

The team will look to find a new identity this season with several new players who made the starting roster, which include Nathan Beaulieu, John Klingberg, Dmitry Kulikov, Brett Leason, Pavol Regenda, Dylan Strome, Frank Vatrano, Colton White. Anaheim will also start the season with no team captain. Genera Manager Pat Verbeek elected to go with three alternate captains instead.

It’s not clear whether the Ducks will be a playoff team or not this season, but they should be entertaining to watch.
