McKenzie: Ducks 'big-game hunting' for 2nd-line center
Jerome Miron / USA TODAY Sports
Sharing a division, state, and even second-round ice with the Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings, it's safe to assume the Anaheim Ducks understand the importance of depth at center.
Hence the impetus behind the Ducks' intent to spend the summer "big-game hunting" for a centerman to play behind Ryan Getzlaf, per TSN's Bob McKenzie.
His report suggests that the Ducks have the wherewithal to land Jason Spezza or Ryan Kesler because of their deep prospect pool and current fleet of NHL-ready blue liners.
With Teemu Selanne retired and Saku Koivu mulling a similar decision, the Ducks will have both the capital and space on their roster to plug and play an impact player to help them skate past their division foe.
