The Anaheim Ducks will bring back their coach and general manager following a rough 17-30-9 season, according to GM Bob Murray, but their standout center may be headed elsewhere.
“I’m coming back next year,” Murray said during a conference call with reporters. “Dallas (Eakins) will be our coach next year. Ryan Getzlaf and I have met and we’re talking about a few things. He’s obviously at a point in his career where he needs to take a little step back and see what’s best for his family and what he thinks his role can be.
