Ducks Trade deadline Deals:My Thoughs

Surprised or Not If one knows our team well as we do it's the Ducks have always a tendency to stand pat or make small deals that equal Big rewards. Deals we see was a result of the Ducks addressing needs on Defence Corps and adding skill to the Left Wing. In Doing so we saw 6 players 5 new faces and one familiar returning to our Ducks. At first Heading into the Trade Deadline I would not be surprise and I admit the Ducks would stand pat seeing the rivals and some enemies improve. You see big name players change teams,Picks swapped back and forth. And Players rumored the Ducks are interested going to other teams in NHL West and East. Out of the 6 players New to the Ducks One we recognize and know by his first Tour with Anaheim years Prior. James Wisniewski aka "The Wiz gives us a right hand shot in Defence Corps but someone familiar other players within the Ducks roster in helping us by moving the puck,create Offensive chances and help improve Special Teams. Getting Wiz was not easy imho Ducks trading William Karlsson aka "Wild Bill" was perhaps tough to some but necessary in improving our team once the Stanley Cup Quest Begins in April. In a Perfect World and knowing the Ducks M.O they do "develop within" the players they drafted who excel in wearing the Ducks D and the Mighty Ducks Logo. like the old saying I say on Ducks Message Board "Players Come and Go" Wild Bill like DSP were traded not because they were bad but needed to gain upgrades and improve the team as whole. All I can say like I said on Ducks MB and Facebook is Best of Luck William and DSP on your NHL Career,Good Luck. Wiz returning to the Ducks is not the only time team has traded or signed for players who got the first start with the Ducks examples of this are Francios Beauchemin,Joffery Lupul,Stu Grimson,Oleg Teverdosky,Ilya Bryzgalov and Anotoli Sememnov. It's no strange thing nor odd Ducks would get a Familiar face back...Usually one can say it's to correct a Mistake or bring a Vet who knows the Ducks System and Help Guide the Ducks Hockey Youth in knowing the ways to Win and Excel. Another Player a Big D-man Simon Despres caught eye when it was announce Ducks Traded Ben Lovejoy for him. At first like many within Ducks Fanbase in Orange County Ca and elsewhere i was sadden to see Ben go and though he had a place with the team. Ducks Front Office saw eitherwise yet I was not only please but Happy Ducks got Simon in Return. You see Let me be Honest and Clear.......I have to really admit but I wanted the Ducks to trade for him by sending Bobby Ryan to Pittsburgh. Yes you heard it right from this Die Hard Passionate Ducks fan. I want the Ducks to get Despres. Watching win the MEM Cup and seeing him with the SeaDogs at the Q. I wonder what would be like if the team can get Despres a 6-4 214 pounds he can develop well for the Ducks just like others who did when the Ducks swung a Deal and got big Rewards..ie Giguere Traded in 2000. Other New Arrivals like Korbinain Holzer,Tomas Fleischmann and Jiri Sekac gives our Ducks a mix of Youth and Experince that mix can be benefical to the Ducks Cause as it did for 8 years ago. Now we wait,See and Hope how will it pan out for Anaheim Ducks as a whole. What started as many within Ducks Nation thinking it would be another Ho-Hum Trade Deadline day turns out to be a Big Gain for the Ducks. We lost some youth and Right hand Shot but gain it back with a Famliar Face and a Young Gun on the Blueline. All in all Ducks are a Better team now and THEY ARE READY to any onslaught from the enemies and Rivals. DuckPride 4ever MooseDuck
