Ducks Ducks trade Nylander

The Ducks have decided to trade Nylander rather than Eichel.

The deal is as follows:

TO DUCKS
B. Wheeler (76)
M. Frost
C. Mackey

TO WILD
W. Nylander (73)

The Ducks get an upgrade and hopefully a great linemate for Eichel...will see if it works or not.

Due to difference in age, we also get a top prospect in Frost and an underrated guy in Mackey.

We will have a decision to make if we choose to not sign Wheeler...but for now my focus is on winning some games and getting Eichel going...so let's see if it works.

Thanks Grant for the deal and patience. We went through a lot of iterations of a deal.

That's a lot for Nylander but it sounds like Jiri was motivated to ship out Wheeler and his contract.

I like Nylander so I'd say Minnesota wins but they gave the Ducks some nice pieces. Really, it's a good deal for both teams.

Was never going to sign Wheeler as a ufa so the additional assess are really about the gap between adding a front line player that I can keep v a pending ufa
