Mikkelson sent to Toronto (AHL).
Ending weeks of suspense, the Ducks announced their final training camp cuts Wednesday: Defenseman Brendan Mikkelson is headed to the AHL's Toronto Marlies [corrects from San Antonio] while forward Logan MacMillan has been assigned to ECHL Bakersfield.
That spares defenseman Luca Sbisa another year of juniors, cements Sheldon Brookbank as the team's seventh defenseman, and leaves forwards Andrew Ebbett and Erik Christensen as the offensive weapons in reserve.

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.
