After a huge miscalculation over the past year left the Anaheim Ducks holding the $18 million bag with Leo Carlsson, their attempts to sign fellow top-liner and restricted free agent Cutter Gauthier have hit a huge bump in the road. With Carlsson now earning $18M on his new pact, Gauthier—he of the 41 goals this past season—is looking for his cut of the pie, too. And it will have to be a huge, tasty slice. It doesn't sound like he'll settle for anything less than $15M or more on any longish-te...

Connor McDavid said it: the NHL’s Pacific Division was a pillow fight last year. This hasn’t been a collection of world-beaters in recent times. On paper, the Edmonton Oilers and Vegas Golden Knights should battle it out for top spot, and both are potential Cup contenders. The San Jose Sharks and Anaheim Ducks will likely…

The Anaheim Ducks are in a huge mess, and general manager Pat Verbeek is going to have to trade his way out of it. Expect to see the Toronto Maple Leafs involved at some point. Verbeek is dealing with a legit cap crunch, which is tough, because normally those only come after you win the Stanley Cup, or go deep into the playoffs, but Verbeek has the Philadelphia Flyers to thank. Leo Carlsson now earns $18 million AAV, and with Cutter Gauthier left without a contract for next season, Verbeek is ...
The Anaheim Ducks have gone from one of the best set ups under the salary cap, to an absolute disaster situation, all in the span of two months. The Philadelphia Flyers inked Leo Carlsson to an $18 million AAV offer sheet, and now the Ducks are stuck paying their former top pick the most money in the NHL. This has really jammed up general manager Pat Verbeek, who is trying to re-sign Cutter Gauthier to a long-term contract extension, and now Verbeek is trying to trade off some salary to make e...
It's been nearly two months since the Philadelphia Flyers turned the hockey world on its ear by signing Leo Carlsson to an astronomical offer sheet of an $18 million AAV over five years. The Anaheim Ducks matched, but the seismic effects have been felt on contracts across the league. One of the seemingly more difficult negotiations still ongoing, is the Columbus Blue Jackets trying to get their own first-line center, and the man selected right after Carlsson, at #3 in the 2023 NHL Draft,...
Though the Edmonton Oilers had a disappointing exit in the 2026 playoffs at the hands of the Anaheim Ducks, one clear bright spot was the performance of their second line. The trio of Leon Draisaitl, Vasily Podkolzin and Kasperi Kapanen was excellent. Across Edmonton’s six games against Anaheim, the line produced six goals and didn’t…
The Anaheim Ducks and Detroit Red Wings are two teams who have been all over headlines this offseason. The Ducks had to deal with a massive offer sheet on Leo Carlsson, made by the Philadelphia Flyers, as the Flyers beat out three other teams, who also made offer sheets to Carlsson this summer. Now, the Ducks are stuck paying Carlsson $18 million AAV, and now don't have enough cap space to sign restricted free agent, Cutter Gauthier. In Detroit, captain Dylan Larkin asked for a trade at ...

The Anaheim Ducks are in a world of mess and now general manager Pat Verbeek is going to have to trade his way out of it.
The Ducks waited far too long to sign Leo Carlsson, and while he was on the restricted free-agent market, the Philadelphia Flyers signed him to a $18-million AAV contract, handcuffing the Ducks in a major way this summer. Verbeek loves getting Carlsson locked up, perhaps not at $18 million per season, but the main concern now becomes Cutter Gauthier. The restricted free-ag...

The Cutter Gauthier situation in Anaheim is getting more and more concerning with each passing day. We shared the report earlier this week that the Ducks' restricted free agent turned down a huge extension offer already. Now, according to hockey analyst Steve Peters, appearing on Daily Faceoff's Morning Cuppa Hockey, the contract dispute will almost certainly lead to the 41-goal scorer holding out from Ducks' training camp next month. Cutter Gauthier won't be at Ducks Camp? 👀 Jonny...
