Great deal! Good job Jim

 

[Ainec]

God Benning is such a clown. Turns down a higher 2016 2nd round pick from SJ lmao

 

[mrmyheadhurts]

Dammit, now I have to root for the Ducks. Hope Bieksa doesn't let Kesler touch the Cup...

 

[CCF23]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

Great person and was a good player for us for a long time, but it was time.

 

[Addison Rae]

thanks for everything Kev

 

[coastal_nuck]

Good, it would have been better to have a 2nd round pick from SJ if they were willing though... Anahiem looks to be a top contender next year and will result in a high 50's pick.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Why accept a high 2nd rounder from the Sharks when you can accept a late 2nd rounder (might as well be a 3rd) from the Ducks?

Just Jim Benning things.

 

[canucksfan]

Good trade. Frees up some cap space and got a pick.

 

[Ainec]

I really like this move for Ana though

adds: Hagelin and Bieksa plus all their younger guys continue to develop

 

[Canucker]

San Jose's 2016 2nd rounder would have been better.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

San Jose would have a higher 2016 2nd...why didn't he trade with San Jose! Anyway besides that I'm happy.

 

[Baby Pettersson]

I'll miss you!

 

[Bgav]

You'll be missed juice

 

[Taelin]

I loved Bieksa back in the day, but this had to be done. Thanks for everything, Juice!

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Bye Casual Kev

 

[Baby Pettersson]

That said I'm very happy with a 2nd round pick!

Their backend is young so Bieksa's character and experience will help them.

 

[WhoseLainesItAnyway]

**** it's gonna be really hard not to cheer for the Ducks next year. Well played Anaheim.

 

[The Stig]

Sigh....bye Kev. I'll miss you. We got a good deal.

 

[Samzilla]

have to think this now means we're in the market for franson...or perhaps ehrhoff. would rather have old man ehrhoff

 

[Bro Horvat]

fair deal, tough to see Bieksa go tho

 

[Win One Before I Die]

This might as well be a 3rd round pick since Anaheim will be top 5 again.
