The Anaheim Ducks are actively exploring trade options for veteran defenseman Cam Fowler as part of their rebuilding strategy, focusing on their promising young core. NHL insider Elliotte Friedman reported that discussions between Fowler and the Ducks are ongoing, with both parties open to a potential trade this season. Fowler, who has played his entire 14-season career with the Ducks, is a key figure from the team's past success and has been a consistent performer on the blue line. At 32 years old, he is entering the final two years of his eight-year contract with a $6.5 million cap hit, and interest in him is expected to rise as the season progresses. As younger players like Pavel Mintyukov and Olen Zellweger emerge, Fowler's role with the Ducks may diminish, prompting the franchise to seek a deal that benefits both sides. The outcome of these discussions could mark a significant transition for the Ducks as they look to the future.
