While I am not surprised to hear Selanne come back again I question if it is just not better to stay away and retire. He can step out now on a high level, but if he comes back and shows his true age then it will tarnish him. I can see it resembling a Favre situation, as in a guy who just never wants to step back and say enough.

I have no reservations about Selanne and the level of play he would still bring. Its a non issue IMO. He isnt the type to hang on longer than he can. If he is coming back he is confident he can compete at a high level, its how guys like him are wired.

A deal around Jordan Staal (S&T) for Bobby Ryan makes tons of sense..

Don't get me wrong, I hope it works out well for him. He is all class and an amazing player.

It is just such an easy thing to "go one more".

Sorry but Ryan is a better player than Staal by far.

I wouldn't say by far. You could say that offensively but in other areas I doubt it.

And I never said it would be Staal for Ryan straight up...Staal +

Lol cmon Lindros is much better than Ryan as far as offensive production goes.

I'd rather have a player who can take a hit. What good is Crosby sitting at home all the time? I've seen Bobby crushed and figured he'd be out for the long haul. Then here he comes right back onto the ice. As lazy as he can look, he's a stud.

What happens when the Ducks miss the playoffs again next year?

Does Selanne come back for another season?
