NHL Rumors: 2 Possible Landing Spots for Ethan Bear


Ethan Bear is still looking for a new home, and he is likely to find one before the start of the season. Let's look at two clubs that could take a chance on the 26-year-old defenseman.

Anaheim Ducks: The Anaheim Ducks could use more defensive depth, and it could make sense for them to sign Bear because of it. He would fit nicely on their bottom pairing and could be a decent addition to their power play and penalty kill. Furthermore, he still has decent upside, so playing for a rebuilding team like the Ducks could be beneficial for him. 

Philadelphia Flyers: The Philadelphia Flyers may be rebuilding, but that has not stopped them from bringing in players this offseason. Their defensive group could use more depth, so they also could make sense as a landing spot for Bear. He would likely have a similar role there as he would if signed by Anaheim.
