Heard a rumor that Burke had a deal lined up for Jason Blake but it was too late to be processed before the deadline. That really sucks if true!

Anyway thanks for sharing some Ducks insight. Best of luck with Coleman and the pick, while he wasn't our highest regarded goalie prospect I'm still interested to see what might happen with him in a new location.

As for Egener, I think the fact we acquired O'Brien says a bit about the perceived NHL readiness of our whole crop of D prospects. It just seems they're all showing their warts or hitting rough patches lately, but then look how quickly Ranger overcame similar problems..
