Eric Stephens of The Athletic: The Anaheim Ducks need to make some changes and re-evaluate the direction of the franchise. It needs to include all management, from Henry Samueli down.
Nobody claimed Adam Henrique and his $5.825 million contract over the weekend, which wasn’t a surprise. Could the Ducks find a trade partner if they take back a bad contract that has less term on it? Would they be willing to retain 25 to 50 percent of his salary?
An offseason Henrique buyout seems unlikely as they are still paying Corey Perry, and though buying out Henrique would save them $3.
