He is the man who skates slow and carries "big stick" Chris Pronger a top defensive player is on his way out of Anaheim. This towering adulterer 6'6" at 214lbs who gets boo'd at every rink but at Anaheim will be missed. His ogre like reach and powerful slap shot from the point was a clear advantage in the Ducks offense and defense. But he's also getting old, he's slow, and the Ducks seem to be right at the cap.
When you really think about trades and team building has for quite some time been so focused on building an all star defense. Bobby Ryan who knew he's be such a scoring machine so early. That was not expected. Imagine where the ducks would be without such scoring - ya we'd be suffering.
Saku Koivu shows light at the end of the tunnel. Ducks management is starting to build a stronger offensive bench. The Perry Getzy combo can not survive on bread alone. Now we have the two Finland natives who can talk dirty together in Finish. Maybe Saku will sport a dirty mustache kind of like the one Salanne recently sports.
I will trade Pronger for more speed and agility on the puck any day as long as I have Scotty back on defense. I just can't wait to Boo Pronger when he plays the Ducks I can't imagine how that must feel? It sure seems fun.
