The new NHL game is heating up, and while the current roster’s solid, the real buzz is all about bringing in Ducks legends. Developers are pushing hard to get icons like Ryan Getzlaf — Anaheim’s longest-tenured captain and all-time leader in games and points — into the lineup. Paul Kariya and Jonas Hiller are also top priorities, with Hiller’s overseas status adding a layer of complexity. Approval from the players themselves is key, making this a slow but exciting process. What’s missing? You tell us — who else should be in the virtual locker room?

The 2005 NHL draft’s second overall pick, Bobby Ryan, became a solid scorer for the Ducks—nearly 300 points and a Calder runner-up—but what if they’d snagged Sidney Crosby instead? Crosby’s generational talent could’ve turned Anaheim into a dynasty with Getzlaf and Perry. While Ryan was great, Crosby would’ve elevated any team—and other elite picks like Price and Kopitar slipped later. The Ducks did win a Cup, so it wasn’t all bad, but the “what ifs” linger. Now, fans are watching Leo Carlsson, another second-pick, hoping he can match Ryan’s legacy—or better.
