Big guns in the pre-season?

Does anybody know if our big guns will play in any of our pre-season games? I'm hoping that they'll make an appearance against San Jose because 1)they're our main rival for the Pacific Division 2)it could provide a confidence booster after our loss to the Kings (I know, I know it's only pre-season but 7-1 is NOT a pretty score). Thanks.

I think it's safe to say that, yes, our top players will need some tune-ups before the season starts.

I read somewhere that you have to play at least 8 players with NHL experience in each preseason game, and since the Ducks have such a packed schedule (something like 6 games in 8 days), then I'd assume that everyone will have to play at some point just so no one gets overplayed.

Per Dan Wood's new Ducks blog (http://blogs.ocregister.com/ducks/archives/2006/09/the_day_after.html), the following players will suit up for tomorrow's game vs. SJ:

J. Giguere
S. Niedermayer
C. Pronger
F. Beauchemin
T. Selanne
A. McDonald
R. Getzlaf
C. Perry
D. Penner
T. Marchant
T. Fedoruk
S. Chistov
