Today we’re gonna talk about the curious case of Shea Theodore and how his departure from the Anaheim Ducks via trade at the expansion draft has panned out a season later.
Shea Theodore was a favorite to many in Ducks Nation. His departure was a tough one to deal with. As much as I loved Theodore on the Anaheim blueline, General Manager Bob Murray did what he had to do.
That’s the problem with prospects like him. Their age sometimes makes them an expendable asset. I wouldn’t say that the Langley, BC native got the short of the end of the stick in any way, but it’s obvious management didn’t see what many fans saw in him.
