Anaheim is all about growing their young players' games this season.
With the way that the NHL works nowadays, the Anaheim Ducks realized that they needed to sell off veteran pieces for draft picks. General Manager Pat Verbeek has been very active at the trade deadline ever since he took over this team, and he has helped stockpile future assets. Anaheim has used these to reload its pipeline, and it is now ranked first overall in the entire league. It's a testament to how Verbeek has built this roster and where the Ducks should go from here. They want to take a step forward in their rebuild this coming season, and they seem to be making some real progress in that regard.
