Pierre LeBrun: The Anaheim Ducks did make a contract offer to Ryan Getzlaf. He’s going to see what is out there, but the door remains open in Anaheim.
Pierre LeBrun: If Ryan Getzlaf is not going to sign with the Anaheim Ducks, potential fits could be the Edmonton Oilers, Montreal Canadiens, Dallas Stars and Boston Bruins.
TSN: Pierre LeBrun on Insider Trading on if Ryan Getzlaf doesn’t re-sign with the Ducks.
“Among the teams, I’m told, that would be potential fits for him the Edmonton Oilers top the list. The Montreal Canadiens are in there and also Boston and Dallas would be potential opportunities for Getzlaf.
This would be a very emotional decision if he does leave Anaheim but would be interesting for sure to see him in either an Oilers or Canadiens uniform.”
