Rumors are swirling that Anaheim Ducks general manager Bob Murray is looking to make changes in Anaheim. Marred in a seven game losing streak, the Ducks are in grave danger of missing the playoffs, which, for a team that according to Capgeek.com carries a $60,681,263 payroll and has attendance issues, is simply out of the question. Veteran forward Teemu Selanne leads the Ducks in scoring this season with eight goals and 14 assists. Teammates Corey Perry (ten goals, eight assists), Ryan Getzlaf (four goals, 12 assists), Cam Fowler (two goals, ten assists), Saku Koivu (four goals, seven assists) and Bobby Ryan (seven goals, four assists) round out the Ducks’ top-six scorers. Combined, Selanne, Perry, Getzlaf, Fowler, Koivu and Ryan own a plus/minus rating of minus-42, with Getzlaf and Perry leading the way at minus-13 each. While the questionable goaltending of Jonas Hiller (who is currently 5-10-4 with a 3.22 goals against average and a paltry .897 save percentage) has contributed to...

Rangers Being Tied to Bobby Ryan Rumors

Via The Rangers Tribune  |  November 30, 2011
I'm not a big fan of rumors and you all know that. But it seems like everywhere I turn tonight, I'm seeing more and more connections between the New York Rangers and Anaheim Ducks forward Bobby Ryan. Ryan, 24, has gotten off to a rough start this season, only recording eleven points in 24 games, so it is rumored that he is a player the Ducks currently have on their trading...

Eklund: Rumor Update. Ducks Making a Big Mistake if they Move Bobby Ryan?

Via HockeyBuzz  |  November 30, 2011
Been a crazy 18 hours. Here is the latest, short version. Many teams are in on Bobby Ryan, as is to be expected. It is almost unheard of that a young player at this talent level is believed to be available. This is simply a money issue in Anaheim, not a case of Anaheim "giving up on Ryan" a source confirms. The Leafs, Sabres, Bruins, Canes, Hawks, Blues,...

Should the Philadelphia Flyers Try to Trade for Bobby Ryan?

Via Race Review Online  |  November 30, 2011
Short answer here: Yes, GM Paul Holmgren should absolutely attempt to acquire Bobby Ryan. The Flyers need defense more than  offense, but Ryan is good enough that he's worth going for. There isn't an excess of top-tier defensemen out on the trade block, and Philadelphia has a few good young prospects that could benefit from getting experience now. Erik Gustafsson, Marc Andre...

Eklund: Teams narrowing in B. Ryan Sweeps. Trade "Highly Likely."

Via HockeyBuzz  |  November 30, 2011
Multiple sources are telling me that a Bobby Ryan trade is all but definite now. One source in W. Ontario tells me the 4 teams 'currently' involved as the Flyers, Rangers, Carolina, and the Islanders. Others could always enter and drop off.. There is reason to believe the Flyers could land him. He grew up in the area, played for the Little Flyers Youth Hockey team...

Bobby Ryan being shopped? Paging David Poile…

Via Section 303  |  November 29, 2011
When it was first reported (by the Orange Country Register) that the Anaheim Ducks were “possibly shopping a top player,” several Preds bloggers got into some friendly banter about what it would take to bring Bobby Ryan to Music City. Then, tonight, when Rogers Sportsnet’s Darren Millard tweeted that it was, in fact, Ryan who was being shopped, it started to put that friendly...

Carlyle Out, Boudreau In, Ryan Safe?

Via Fox - The Hockey Guy  |  December 01, 2011
The hockey world was getting all excited about the possibility that Anaheim forward Bobby Ryan was on the trade block. The Ducks were floundering and something had to give. As a much-coveted asset, Ryan could fetch an awesome return in a trade. What team couldn't use a proven goal scorer with a robust playing style? Anaheim coach Randy Carlyle relegated Ryan to his third line...

Are changes needed in Anaheim?

Via Red Light District Hockey  |  November 29, 2011
As the old saying goes, “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.” With the Anaheim Ducks right now, everything is broken. How long will management wait to fix it? That’s a decision that needs to be made soon as they will head into December sitting no better than 14th place in the Western Conference.Many people are pointing fingers at head coach Randy Carlyle as the core of Anaheim’s...

The Obligatory Bobby Ryan Post

Via Blue Seat Blogs  |  November 29, 2011
As per Nick Kypreos, the Anaheim Ducks are shopping star RW Bobby Ryan. Ryan is an elite talent and he is incredibly young, just 24 years old. The former second overall pick in 2005 has had a bit of a rough go of it to start the year, with “just” 11 points (7-4-11) in 23 games thus far. That is a far cry from his usual output of about 35-30-65, but it still puts him on pace for...
