Anaheim cannot say no fast enough.

Does anyone know what Ducks cap situation is? I mean people are throwing ridiculous contracts at the Ducks when they have 50 grand in space.

Montour is 3.3 mill Ristolainen is at 5.4

Ducks can’t afford Ristolainen. And besides even if we had the space I wouldn’t trade Montour for em.

i mean it wouldn't be difficult to make the salaries work.

This. I can't imagine the Ducks would want to pay that much more for a player that is not noticeably better (and may not be better at all).

Which I suppose is why this trade was proposed in the first place

The problem is we aren’t making the Salaries work for Ristolainen. He’s not worth bringing in when we have forward issues. Not a defensive issue.

ducks were supposedly interested in risto before and had trouble signing montour. montour may make more than risto after his next contract.

ducks may want to just shake up the locker room.

I dont think this is that far off.

more salary back and a prospect to buffalo.

That's fine. I don't like the deal either but ... salaries aren't an issue

You’ve got to be joking. Montour isn’t going to ask for a 2.1 million dollar+ raise by end of Next season which Ristolainen is being paid.

That’s more than Lindholm. I would trade Montour so fast if he was asking for that. And it’s not going to be for Ristolainen.

I don't like the Ducks . I find them a dirty team and Edmonton playing them as much as we do the dislike is putting it very mildly so you know when I say I would take Montour it not me being a homer .

I would take Montour 1st every day and twice on Sunday
