Pat Verbeek, General Manager of the Anaheim Ducks, joins John Shannon and Daren Millard on 100% Hockey to talk about his team’s surprising rise to first place early in the season. Verbeek breaks down how Anaheim’s young, fast, high-scoring group has driven the offense, and how Joel Quenneville’s influence has encouraged the defense to activate and support the attack. He also touches on the steadying presence of the veterans he added in the offseason — players who have brought a much-needed “calming effect” to a young room. Verbeek shares why the team is having so much fun right now, how the coaching staff has helped shape their identity, and what he sees as the next steps as the Ducks try to build on their strong start.
