I can't see Glencross waiving for Boston, they are where we are now, it would be lateral for him.

If he waives, it will be for a chance to increase his UFA value and that would mean a long playoff run with a true contender. Pittsburgh and Anaheim give him the best opportunity to market himself.

With Nashville loading up, and Chicago, St. Louis, and LA being who they are, the Ducks are going to have to improve their team if they want to win the cup. I just don't see them stacking up with those other teams in terms of depth scoring. Glencross would help them out a lot.

As bad a season as Glencross is "perceived" to be having by some, he'd still be 5th in scoring among forwards for the Ducks, behind only Getzlaf, Perry, Kesler, and Beleskey.

The Ducks have been so desperate for a big top 6 forward that they actually traded for Rene Bourque.
