Daniel Winnik was a healthy scratch in Game 1. He was joined on the sidelines by his linemate Kyle Palmieri as the Ducks went with Devante Smith-Pelly and Emerson Etem. Etem and Smith-Pelly joined Nick Bonino on the fourth unit and managed 10 shots on goal so it may be tough for Winnik and Palmieri to get back in the lineup for Game 2. "I think Palmieri and Winnik and Rakell, for that matter, would not hurt our team one iota, if were in there," coach Bruce Boudreau said. "They were regulars, at least the two of them, for the whole year. Just right now, with this series, I think, the bigger bodied guys, and the more physical guys, are what we need."
