Mathieu Schneider Placed on Waivers by Ducks
September 16th, 2008 | Posted by Wicked in Anaheim DucksThe Ducks have placed Mathieu Schneider on waivers in the hopes that some team will pick up Schneider and his hefty $5.75 million salary. There are probably a number of teams interested in Schneider, and one of the frontrunners would have to be the Los Angeles Kings, who could deperately use some veteran support on their blueline. Not to mention, the Kings could also use a powerplay quarterback now that Visnovsky is gone.
Now that Schneider is basically gone from the Ducks, that leaves salary cap room for Burke to sign Teemu Selanne. Selanne who missed a good chunk of last year contemplating retirement seems like he still has some juice left in his tank and could help out the Ducks offensively this year.
