Ducks Shopping Bobby Ryan?

Put me on the "believe it when I see it" list.

Anahime is in trouble this year.... and they clearly need defense..... but I doubt Ryan moves anywhere.

This might warrant discussion when it comes from a reliable news source, not some jabroni spouting off on Twitter.

Is Bob McKenzie talking about it on Off The Record good enough for you?

Yep, that'll do.

People can hate on Kypreos for any number of reasons (I'm not a fan of his on-air persona, though I hardly "hate" him for that) but the man is dialed in. No reporter gets it right every time, but he's certainly no better or worse than most of the options out there. Besides, most of the people who rip reporters also rip players, coaches, referees, Brendan Shanahan, the NHL as a whole, anyone born after 1980 and life in general. Pay them no mind.

As for potential destinations for Ryan ... it's so hard to say. Anaheim and Philadelphia have an extensive recent trade history that, unlike the one the Ducks have with Toronto, isn't ridiculously one-sided. it seems like a good fit if the Flyers aren't afraid to part with someone like JVR or even Matt Read, along with at least one other decent live body.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Flames go HARD. They've already played their hand regarding the possibility of a Kyle Turris deal, and I have to think they hold Ryan in even higher regard.

Anaheim wants to win this season, mainly for Teemu ... maybe with Iginla as the centerpiece, there might be something there.

Bob gets Kypreos's tweets before everyone else does. Lol.

C'mon fellas, these guys are being paid to stir the pot. If there is no stew in the pot, then they create one.

Between listening to the Hot Stove, Sportsnet, The Tweets, ESPNBA Insider, there are probably 50 rumours per year at the least.

I'm not saying that Ryan is not on the trade block, I'm just saying that these grown men acting like kids to collect a paycheque, is what spawns most of the nonsense, most of the hype, true or untrue.

bobby ryan doesn't get much hobby love for a #2 pick does he?

4th full year in the league and pushing 500 cards equals overexposure......but yes his cards are hard to find hardly see him at all at the expo.......if he was traded I would hope to the leafs.....i hate the leafs but at least that way they would likely make a mcfarlane of him :)

Cmon fella, he has a job as a hockey insider, and has many sources and goes inside the game
It's not a lie, if they wanted a news story theyd say it was Crosby on the block

Why don't you become active and make some trades instead of starting fights on this board.

Sound good?

Hahaha... Jabroni. Don't think I've ever actually seen that written down before.
