Silver Nuggets: With Boudreau hiring, is Ryan still available?
Old news at this point, but there have been plenty of rumours since the weekend that Anaheim Ducks winger Bobby Ryan was being shopped on the trade market, and--as would be expected--that possibility generated ample interest from around the league.

Ducks Gameday -- Intreau to Boudreau
Philadelphia Flyers (shrug) at Anaheim Ducks (shudder), 7 pmBroad Street Hockey and Anaheim Calling -- let's have a safe and efficient Flyer drill. Oh crap -- I got what I wanted.

The #9 Moment of the Nashville Predators' 2011 Playoffs: Anaheim GM Bob Murray whines about diving

Bobby on Board, How I've Adored...
Late last night, from the tweets of OC Register's Eric Stephens: No deal yet but a well-placed source told me late tonight that a Bobby Ryan signing is "very close." Not known when it'll happen. Bed time. Good enough for me -- I normally don't like to pre-report news like this, but Stephens is...
The Mallard of Oz, an August fairy tale

It's July 26th and Steve Tambellini has wrapped up his vacation and has one major item left to check off of his "to do" list: find a new home for Sheldon Souray.
