Anaheim Ducks obtain Ben Meyers from Colorado Torrential slide for draft choose
The Anaheim Ducks have procured forward Ben Meyers from the Colorado Torrential slide in trade for a fifth-round choose in 2024.
Meyers, 25, is within the last year of his $775,000 contract. Concurring to CapFriendly, he is an RFA with assertion rights.
Concurring to the Ducks, Meyers will report to the Ducks afterward nowadays.
Meyers has fair one objective in nine recreations this year, and six objectives in 53 recreations over three seasons in a profundity part for the Torrential slide. Meyers was a enormous college free operator marking back in 2022, with Meyets putting up 17 objectives and 41 focuses in 34 recreations as a junior at the College of Minnesota. He moreover had a tremendous year globally that season, speaking to USA at the Winter Olympics in Beijing and wrapping up as one of America’s beat players at the World Championship that year.
Meyers hasn’t created much within the NHL, but he has demonstrated to be a strong piece for the AHL’s Colorado Hawks. He has 11 objectives and 25 focuses in 32 recreations this season and has truly found his diversion in later weeks – so much so that a few scouts consider him a future bottom-six risk within the NHL.
