  Going into Wednesday’s game against the Buffalo Sabres, Jones was the only one with a point, an assist in the Ducks’ season-opening victory Oct. 3 over the Arizona Coyotes. No question, injuries

• Hoornstra: In Joe Maddon, Angels pick the best manager for the moment; They’ll need more

  16-10-2019 22:36 via ocregister.com
  
  The Angels’ new manager was not among the 679 players chosen in the 1975 amateur draft. A catcher by trade and the son of a plumber, Joe Maddon retired after batting .250 for the Single-A Santa Clara Padres in 1979. He toiled for another 15 seasons in the Angels’ organization as a minor league manager, coach, or scout, before ever wearing a major league uniform. When the Angels needed a manager in 1999, Maddon had already done the job twice on an interim basis, winning 27 games and l
