Great deal for the Ducks considering Teemu is a hockey playing android from the future that will probably play until he's 178 years old.

He's the one that got away.

I wonder how much different this franchise would have been had Winnipeg not matched.

I love Selanne. The guy seems like a really amazing person, and he's still ridiculously good.

Not much. Even if we had signed him away, he would have been just another lost free agent in the mid 1990s.

Great price, especially when you consider he'll likely pound 59 goals and 150 pts.

One of my all time favourite players.

I was at this game:




Gonna have to try and get to one of his games here in Alberta, it would be nice to see the end of his career as well.

I'd take Lidstrom over Teemu. But he's definitely near the top IMO, Jagr has to be in there somewhere too.

I was too - one of my favourite hockey moments.

And one of my all-time favourite players.
