I posted it first Sticking Out Tongue

Aberg's been good in Anaheim. I'm not sure why they did this. Who is Justin Kloos anyway? He's played 1 NHL game and has no points.

Kloos is a former NCAA free agent. He deserved a better chance; he's not gonna get it in Anaheim.

While Kloos has value, there's no way he was worth Aberg. Murray and Carlyle: Dumb and Dumber. I, on the other hand, look forward to seeing what Aberg can do here!

Maybe, some of the stuff that was happening in EDM that got him benched/scratched started in ANA? Only reason I can think for them to move him for lesser player

Wow, I can't believe the Ducks would make this trade. This is a great trade for the Wild.

Anaheim got fleeced hard. This is daylight robbery.

Did ANA just tell Aberg to get off at the next stop and they'll take whatever they can get for him? The next stop just happened to be MN.

Oh the Ducks win the trade. They get something for nothing at the end of the day. Aberg probably would have ended up back on waivers anyways.

Big win for Minnesota. Kloos is an AHL nobody and Aberg can at least play in the NHL

Judging by recent moves, I’d be calling up GM Murray STAT and asking about any player one would want on their roster right now. Clearly they are desperate to “shake things up”.

And now they made another trade to acquire Del Zotto. That makes something like 7 of the last 16 or 17 trades ANA has been a part of.

Big loss for Anaheim. Kloos is an AHLer for life.

Kloos has potential, he's not a total loss. Maybe he turns into something maybe not.

Aberg though has all the potential in the world but there is something else going on there.
https://oilersnation.com/2018/03/20/the-oilers-arent-happy-with-pontus-aberg/

Edmonton put him on waivers and got nothing for him. At least ANA traded him out for something.

When it costs you nothing but you get something I think that's a win for ANA.
The real loser here is ABerg who showed he could play at this level and was having a decent year, and then somehow blew it.
