"Jake Allen will not be traded, in my opinion, to a team aspiring for the Stanley Cup [...] But he is someone very respected who can help in many ways for a team. He does things that go unnoticed by us because we are not in the locker room but which greatly help his team. Then, on the side of Anaheim, there's a need to establish a culture and do the right things. If you bring in a guy like Jake Allen, he could be a stabilizer in many places. He still has value, it won't be a first-round pick, but if a guy like John Gibson is traded, there's something to work on there, and he could find himself with a team like the Anaheim Ducks." - Renaud Lavoie
