Nice conditions from a Ducks' POV. Really can't complain with an Andersen return of late 1st, mid 2nd and Bernier at a $2.15M salary. Actually better than what I hoped for.

Salary is salary, cap hit is cap hit, that's why I put it the way I did.leafs didn't retain salary on the cap, but for the ducks it basically is retained salary, so good for you guys.
I wouldn't say that just yet. If Andersen lives up to his potential, nobody will bat an eye. He's a confident dude, so I doubt the pressure of the market is going to get to him the same way, despite his own occasional mental lapses.Lou made a bad trade.

You mean other fans don't?
For the record though,
We got Rychel for Harrington
We got 2 2nds for Spaling, Polak (we just had to take Torres, big deal)
We got a 3rd round pick and Ben Smith for Reimer
We got a 2nd, Laich, and Carrick for Winnik
We managed to move Dion Phaneuf for other cap dumps for a 2nd + Lindberg (B prospect) - Apparently he was untradeable!
We were also told no one would take Bernier unless we took a dump back. We didn't. Nith below me hit the nail on the head. He carried a big cap hit and most likely is a back up for most teams. Attach him as part of the Andersen deal or look at it as a separate deal if you want but the reality is I don't think Bernier had that much value, we clearly chose to go with Andersen for the foreseeable future.
Seems to me as though we've done better then most of the armchair GMs on HFboards would have expected.
Counting that as a win already? Rychel has yet to play a game here.
I also think the Leafs could have found a better deal for Reimer. Seems like with both of the goalie trades it was the Leafs just cutting their losses and moving on, instead of looking around for a better deal.

So 90% chance they get nothing?
