  1. Noone get your hopes up. Doubt we do anything actively exciting. It’ll likely all be underwhelming signings that aren’t part of the long term core.

  6. I think it’s time to explore a short term relationship with Phil the Thrill. 2 years for 6-7m + a private tunnel from Honda Center to Portillos in Buena Park.

  8. I’m honestly curious how Verbeek is going to get to the cap floor. I know we’ll get some dumps, but we also need bodies to fill out the roster. I’m not expecting any big names, but I’m hoping we get at least 1 player who can play with Zegras

  11. After the Vatrano signing, we still have 14.2M to spend to reach the cap floor haha

  13. Gotta keep in mind we also owe new contracts to our RFAs, so that has to be accounted for as we’re signing UFAs from the market to reach the cap floor. Lundestrom, Vaakaneinen, Benoit, and OEE will all account for some $, with Lundy and likely Vaak accounting for the brunt of it (albeit still not likely much).

    Definitely not going all-in on anyone this year.

  15. 🚨🚨Seravalli: Hearing #NHLDucks have agreed to terms with Glenn Gawdin on a 2-year deal that includes a one-way contract in 2023-24.

    He was heavily sought after (20+ teams) as one of top scorers in AHL last season, maybe a player ready to pop in NHL?🚨🚨

    25 year old, 6’1” right handed center with one point in 9 career NHL games. 50 points in 62 AHL games last season.

  19. Kinda strange our social media has been silent all day. Between FAs and the development camp starting, you would think they would post something.

  20. Don’t know what defines “serious interest” but Stephens says “Ducks have serious interest in Palat, but so do several other teams”

  21. Vatrano: Anaheim was one of the first teams to call. For me, it was kind of a no-brainer…I’m excited to be a part of the future with the Ducks.

    Vatrano: The pieces are there. It takes time to figure things out, but Anaheim has done a great job drafting. The future is very bright in Anaheim.

  23. “‘I’m told one team to watch on both Ondrej Palat & Ryan Strome is .. the Anaheim Ducks.”
