If a team was willing to give a 2nd and a prospect, don't you think he would have went there? He sure as hell wouldn't be welcomed in Anaheim...so I know it's not that...
It doesn't seem like the market for Michalek was that high. Not enough to get a significant asset to use for Ryan. You don't get players like Ryan for second round picks and a 'C' prospects...

Bobby Ryan proven 30 + goal scorer, cap hit 5.1 million for the next 3 years. Zach Parise on the open market is going to 8 mil or so per year on the cap. Thats why you look at Ryan. Not sure that Shero has the assets to get Ryan from the Ducks though.

I'd rather have Ryan. Parise has actually seen his production dip quite a bit over the last 2 full seasons that he has played. He will have a tough time meeting his cap hit in terms of production in my opinion.

Agreed. Why would Shero let Z go for nothing, when he could use him in a trade for Ryan.

As for a trade, its been all over the place this summer already. Would Despres, Cooke and a pick get it done? How highly do they think of Martin? He was pretty sought after when he was a UFA.

No. But how about Orpik and Despres????
