from Helene Elliott of the LA Times,
Niedermayer is the only defenseman left from the group that was so vital to the Ducks’ 2007 Stanley Cup title. He’s not sure how this season will unfold, but he was intrigued enough by the possibilities to sign a one-year contract in July soon after his previous four-year deal expired.
“I’m going to watch him all day long, watch how he prepares for games, how he does little things,” Sbisa said. “I’m pretty confident I’ll take a lot of things from him this season.”
The man called “irreplaceable” by General Manager Bob Murray must be the Ducks’ glue if they’re going to regroup on defense and compete with the NHL’s elite.

So far, what I’ve learned is to sucker punch guys like Pavel Datsyuk while you still have your gloves on. Scotty is a master at doing that. I just hope I can be as big a douchebag as Scotty was in the playoffs last year. And someday I hope to also be as big a douchebag as Chrissy Pronger.
The future is bright in YES Anaheim.
