Team: 2022-23 Anaheim Ducks

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 12, 2022

Published: Jul. 12, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

MANSON SIGNING: Based on rumors, Manson would like to return to the Ducks. I've heard the main part of the deal that is being worked on is whether or not the Ducks give him the 5th year. In the end I think they do and Manson can be a candidate to wear the "C" for the Ducks.

KANE SIGNING: I've heard rumors that the Ducks were interested in possibly signing Kane. The deal I went with was close to one I saw that the Oilers potentially offered him. I think realistically he will ask for more money so this signing is a little more unlikey but I figured I would include it for fun.

CARLSSON SIGNING: Carlsson would give the Ducks a 6'5 Defenseman who fits their age range who had a decent season in Columbus. He can be a temperoray solution until Noah Warren arrives or could turn into a nice piece for the Ducks at a low risk investment.

GAUDETTE SIGNING: Like Manson, I've seen rumors that the Ducks could be interested in Gaudette. He was once a pretty highly regarded prospect and you can probably sign him for cheap to help round out the top-9. Best case scenario, he adds some depth scoring for a team that sturggles to score at times.

RFA SIGNINGS: Bring back Benoit, Lundestrom, and Vaakanainen for solid defenseive depth and Lundestrom can be a solid 3rd line center/penalty killer.

TRADES: It seems to me that Comtois and Eakins may not have the best relationship and I think it would be good for Max to get a change of scenery. I chose Beauvillier because I saw that he is another player allegedly on the Ducks radar. I figured NYI get a younger player with upside and save around 2M in cap space and the Ducks get a more established Top-6(ish) forward. It could even be a 1 for 1 but I threw in the pick just cause. Ducks could even toss a pick back to NY.

Trade Grant for a pick and call it a day.

Tried my best to be realistic but probably over/underpaid players. Interested to see what the new regime does this offseason. Go Ducks!

Welcome back to CapFriendly in general and the devoted cadre of hardcore Ducks adherents in particular!

If you're signing this year's draft picks already, don't forget about Tyson Hinds, Jackson LaCombe and Henry Thrun.

He's also twice as expensive and under team control for only two more seasons, which might be factors important to the Isles.

Comtois had 16 points last season and Beau is in the top 6 no reason to trade him, I think Bellows is similar to Comtois and Bellows should get more ice time but probably won’t because “We CaNt BrEaK uP tHe FoUrTh LiNe”

Except that Bellows has never had a season like Comtois had in 2020-2021, which is why we hold out hope that he will rebound from this past injury-stricken season.

I don't really disagree. I've heard the Ducks are interested and saw that offer was rumored to be close to what the Oilers were offering so I just went with what I saw.

oilers only offered Kane 4.5 cuz they were signing other players and Kane said he loved playing in Edmonton. Team that gets him will end up paying like 6.5-7

That's not our fault. The point is, Comtois has already proven that he can produce under the right conditions; Bellows hasn't.

The RFA signings; I like them all but I’d love giving Lundeström another 3 maybe 4 years and like 400-500k more to be our 3rd/4th (mainly 4th once Gaucher is ready to rock) and we would have a great looking center core

The UFA signings; Manson, I’d like more around a 2x5 or 3x4-4.5, Kane and Carlson I would pass on

The Trade; Comtois for Beau, I would much much rather bet on Max that binding him for Beau (Comtois Zegras Terry line would be nasty), I’m happy to see the Elite1C go

My ideal add here; Mason Marchment on a 4 x $4,000,000ish deal, same money as Beau would be but more what I think Verkeek is looking for in a player
