Insider leaks a major trade between the St. Louis Blues and the Anaheim Ducks
After Torey Krug's devastating injury news, an intriguing report has surfaced about a major failed trade between the Ducks and the Blues.
Torey Krugs future in the NHL is in jeopardy due to pre-arthritic changes in his left ankle, which could cause him to miss the entire 2024/25 season.
Following this news, David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period revealed that early in July, there were serious whispers about a potential deal to trade the 33-year-old defenseman.
The Anaheim Ducks were reportedly interested in acquiring Krug, but he used his no-trade clause to block the deal, likely due to the Ducks' rebuilding status. If Krug misses time, it would be a significant blow to both him and the Blues. However, placing him on LTIR would save the team $6.5 million in cap space for the upcoming season.
Krug's future remains uncertain as he carries a large cap hit while playing for a team that may not contend for the Stanley Cup Playoffs. For now, we await further updates on his ankle diagnosis.
