The Anaheim Ducks are set to host the 2025 Golden State Rookie Faceoff presented by Arrowhead Water from September 12-14 at Great Park Ice in Irvine, California. This rookie tournament will feature top prospects from the Ducks, Los Angeles Kings, and San Jose Sharks. All games will be played at FivePoint Arena, which has a seating capacity of 2,500.
The Ducks will hold a Rookie Camp practice on September 11, preceding the Rookie Faceoff. This practice will be at Great Park Ice and is open to the public at no charge. The San Diego Gulls coaching staff, including Head Coach Matt McIlvane, and Assistant Coaches Dave Manson and Michael Babcock, will lead the camp and the Rookie Faceoff.
Anaheim's 2025 Rookie Camp roster includes 23 players: 13 forwards, seven defensemen, and three goaltenders. Seventeen of these players are Anaheim draft selections, including two first-round picks: Beckett Sennecke (third overall in 2024) and Stian Solberg (23rd overall in 2024). Four of Anaheim's 2025 NHL Draft selections are also on the roster, along with three free-agent signings and three camp invitees.
Two players on Anaheim's Rookie Faceoff roster have already played in the NHL, Ian Moore and Tim Washe. Moore recorded one assist in three games, and Washe played in two games with Anaheim last season. Twelve players on the roster participated in the 2024 Rookie Faceoff hosted by Los Angeles, and another 12 played for the San Diego Gulls in 2024-25.
