Ducks are 90% set for the season, if this is true. (The remaining 10% would be from rookies who might make the team, including former Vancouver Giants defenseman Brett Festerling, who has a high possibility IMHO.)
The Ducks are a few days away from wrapping up their off-season player acquisition activities, and they are expected to take a big step by re-signing James Wisniewski, who is a restricted free agent.
Although it hasn’t been announced, the indications are that the Ducks are close to giving the talented defenseman a 1-year deal with a salary in the neighborhood of $2.5 million, which would hold off an arbitration hearing.
Wisniewski came over at the trade deadline from Chicago and was a influential puck-mover and hitter during the Ducks’ playoff run.
