Following a familiar pattern, the Anaheim Ducks typically hold off on trade discussions for their pending UFAs until they enter the final year of their contracts. Adam Henrique exemplified this last season, and it appears Frank Vatrano might be poised to do the same.
In an interview on the Spittin' Chiclets Podcast, Vatrano revealed his fondness for Anaheim while subtly indicating an inclination to join Boston in the later stages of his career, implying potential interest in free agency. With the Bruins anticipated to have available cap room this offseason, conjecture arises regarding a potential trade between Anaheim and Boston. More probable, though, is Boston securing Vatrano during next season's trade deadline, possibly signing him before he hits free agency.
