Eric Stephens of The Athletic: As the Adam Henrique saga turns, it is clear something will happen but what? Henrique scored six goals and five assists in the World Championship as Canada struck gold.
A trade feels unlikely for now as Henrique is Anaheim’s highest salaried player currently. Building interest is still essential to facilitate movement.
A sweetener deal seems to be a possibility. Henrique would be part of a bigger deal. Anaheim Ducks’ brass does not seem inclined to buy out the forward either.
Retention to trade looks to be a better option compared to a buyout, waiver wire, etc.
