Default McGrattan now a Duck?

According to McGrattans Instagram post a few minutes ago he is back with Anaheim. Haven't read anything about it so I have no idea what capacity he is returning there in.

If true sad to see him leave Calgary but his time was up here.

Best of luck Gratts

Hope the west coast sunshine suits you well, McGrattan.

This is unexpected but I'm happy for the mcgrattan family and especially the new baby getting to live in California, that's gotta be sick. Good luck Brian

Hopefully he "accidentally" stomps Kesler and Bieksa a few times in practice.

He was a big part of the fight and attitude that started at the end of the 13-14 season. Good luck big guy! Best of luck!

Sad. Kind of hoped he'd stick with the front office in some capacity. He can't truly crack the Ducks lineup, can he?

He can crack their lineup. They play the top line so much that they platoon the 4th.

Interesting to see if Scott re-ups with San Jose.

So very pleased for McGrattan

Makes sense. If he gets sent down to the AHL he'll only be two hours north of LA in San Diego.

Well their farm team is now in San Diego - so McGrattan is California bound either way.

They redrew the district lines last year -- the lake is not the boundary anymore.

I think McGrattan had a HUGE impact on the room and culture of the Flames we see today. Sad to see him go, but thrilled to see a new opportunity for the guy. Much respect Grats! Still one of my faves.

previous post mentions player other than McGrattan and that in turn would change the topic of this conversation to me somehow. Please disregard previous post.
