Best Guess- Pronger Won’t Be Traded This Season

from Kevin Allen of Mucking and Grinding,
My best guess is that the Ducks won’t trade Pronger at the deadline, simply because if they do decide to trade him, they could get a better package this summer.
The Ducks’ issue seems to be that they are being handcuffed by their salary cap, and they need to move one of their major breadwinners to ease their pressure.
Two seasons ago, the Ducks paid more than $13 million for Scott Niedermayer and Chris Pronger and they won a Stanley Cup. Have they now decided they can’t afford both?
It doesn’t seem as if the Ducks know yet whether Niedermayer is coming back.
