from Dan Wood of the OC Register,
“I have spent a good deal of time, as have (senior vice president of hockey operations) Bob Murray and (assistant general manager) David McNab, working on our cap situation,” Ducks general manager Brian Burke said. “Obviously, most of the activity is centered on Mathieu Schneider.
“Our goal would be to resolve this within 72 hours, maybe four days, max. We think to make Mathieu stay out longer than that wouldn’t be fair to him and his preparation as a hockey player.”
The Ducks are in “active” discussions with five teams regarding Schneider, and another club is on the “back burner.

Well considering no one took him from waivers, Itlan, I’m guessing that your precious poultry are probably going to have to trade Schnieder PLUS someone.
So in other words, your team is getting screwed over because their GM made a terrible decision in signing an aging player to a BIG contract. Now they want to get rid of that contract so they can sign ANOTHER aging player. Gotta love the ducks.
