Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings are top two potential landing spots for a $52 million defenseman
The Anaheim Ducks are entering a crucial rebuilding phase, and veteran defenseman Cam Fowler is potentially on the move, or being traded.
According to The Athletic's Eric Stephens, the two teams that make the most sense for Fowler are the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings. Fowler, who grew up in Farmington Hills, Michigan, would be a natural fit in Detroit, while Toronto is constantly looking to bolster its defense.
Fowler, 31, has two years remaining on his eight-year, $52 million contract, with a $6.5 million cap hit. He's reportedly expanded his no-trade list, allowing more teams, including Dallas and Winnipeg, to enter discussions.
Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman recently reported that Fowler and the Ducks are open to trade possibilities. While trades of this magnitude are rare before the season starts, a deal could be imminent, allowing Fowler to join a new team in time for training camp.
