Ducks "finalize" opening-day roster.
Brian Burke could be hitting the phones as I type this, trying to complete a trade that will allow Bobby Ryan to get into the NHL. In the meantime, Ryan Donally and Andrew Ebbett have been sent to Iowa, giving the Ducks 23 men (including injured forward Brad Larsen), all under the salary cap, in time for Thursday's opener in San Jose.

J.P. Hoornstra has been covering the Anaheim Ducks since 2007. Eight months after the University of Wisconsin won its third NCAA hockey championship, he was born in a frigid Madison winter. He betrayed his blue-blooded beginnings by graduating from UCLA in 2003, and welcomes any and all dialogue on the finer points of hockey.
