General manager Pat Verbeek told Ducks season ticket holders on Saturday at the Ducks Migration event that the Ducks plan to add a top-six right-shot winger this summer.
Earlier today, Pat Verbeek went on The Beeker, a podcast recorded through Ducks Stream, and he had quite a bit to say about the state of the Ducks, their prospects, and much more!
The Anaheim Ducks have been active around the trade deadline in the previous two seasons under general manager (GM) Pat Verbeek. That is not expected to change before March 8, and the team has a diverse group of individuals who may be of interest to other organizations in potential deals.
