Considering the ducks were 20 point out of 8th on Jan 6 and now are only 6, I think it is unlikely he would waive the no trade. The Ducks are the hottest team in the league since Jan 6.

There’s also the somewhat controversial *wink wink, nudge nudge* rental where a guy gets traded at the deadline…only to magically re-sign with the team that traded him. (See, Tkachuk, Keith, St. Louis/Atlanta, 2007.)

Pretty sure those deals are now frowned against, but not illegal. Wonder if Anaheim/Selanne would consider it.

Btw, the Blues got a 1st and 3rd in 2007 and a 2nd in 2008 for Tkachuk. That turned into Ian Cole, Brett Sonne and Philip McRae (son of Basil!)

When people ask him these kind of questions and are surprised by his answers they clearly haven’t watched him during his career. He’s all about the team and winning games. The only way he would ever move is to make the team he leaves better.
