Ducks Trade O' Donnell & Quick Notes

According to ESPN and the Ducks homepage, Sean O'Donnell has been traded to L.A. for a conditional pick.
I have always liked O'Donnell. I think he works well with Pronger and can fight it out in the corner.

I do like the fact that Teemu is back. I expect him to be on a line with Morrison and Kunitz.

I attended the Ducks first pre-season game last week versus San Jose at the Honda Center. I was very impressed with Bobby Ryan's play. I have to say I didn't think he was a great choice after seeing Kopitar bloom so quickly, but he had a great game with Perry and Getzlaf. Great sniper shot on that first goal.

Guess who's back... Back again... Teemu's back... Tell a friend.

So it sounds like Teemu will be back for another year, pending the dissipation of the cap situation. Selanne is quoted as saying, "I have made a decision, I’m not going to say what my decision is, but I have made a decision and I’m skating every day." In response to the cap situation: “There’s no rush,” Selanne said. “The only thing I can say is that I haven’t been skating every day for the last four weeks just for fun. There is a reason.” Sure, its not "official" that he'll be back, but just yesterday a Finnish news outlet parroted these sentiments, asserted that Selanne indeed will be back for a 16th season. As a fan, that's as good a indication as any other.
Dan Wood from the OCRegister also reports that Selanne was skating at Anaheim Ice today with Bobby Ryan and Paul Kariya. Seriously. One of these days I've got to head down there and see if I'm lucky enough to see these three in person.
