Olen Zellweger

And Steel, to wrap it up with these Ducks- A lot of what I have said about the Ducks, for me, comes down to, at least fantasy-wise, is being able to navigate this situation they're in between of establishing themselves as a real playoff threat, and navigating the situation between that and a whole bunch of young talent.

And then you factor in McTavish's exit, Olen Zellweger's exit, and also, on the back end, Radko Gudas, the definition of this team has changed a little bit.

And if you're also taking a look at the rest of the Pacific division and expectations, why not this Anaheim Ducks team? So I'm still looking at Jackson LaCombe.

I'm looking all day at Cutter Gauthier.

You've been very patient with him, and uh, we've seen small samples of, of him playing in the NHL, and he's looked pretty good in that time as well.

But if he comes out, again, if he comes out and he's like the guy for you, do you, do you try to lock him up long term? Maybe you go like an Olen Zellweger, who again, former Ducks player who got traded to the Sabres, three years at 3.1, something like that.

Um, you know, I know Brent Clark, who's, you know, a little bit more touted player and has been playing a little bit longer to sign to 5 by 7, you know, .4 this year.

Um, or even maybe the Jordan Spence 4 tw- uh, or the old 4 by 5, uh, $20 million, uh, type of contract.

But it's that back end, guys.

They als- also lost Olen Zellweger, who they traded to the Buffalo Sabres before the draft.

They sent four guys out the door and only brought in a Nick Jensen, who has been dealing with injuries for the past two seasons when he was, was with the Ottawa Senators.

They're gonna be relying a lot on younger players, and Jackson LaCombe, who to his credit, was a USA golden, um, a gold medal Olympic, O- uh, Olympus.
