Sean Bergenheim: Becomes free agent
Bergenheim was released by the Ducks from his professional tryout agreement Thursday, James Mirtle of TSN 1050 reports.
Bergenheim played last season for Bern SC of the Swiss League, where he recorded 13 points over 21 games. However, as a 36-year-old who's never cleared 30 points in his NHL career, the Finn apparently didn't impress the Ducks enough to stay on their active roster. The left winger is now a free agent who can sign with any other team, but may be forced to head back to Europe.

Ducks' Sean Bergenheim: Will participate in training camp
Bergenheim finalized a professional tryout agreement with Anaheim on Tuesday, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
Bergenheim, a first-round selection in the 2002 NHL Draft, has never quite lived up to expectations, as he logged his best season back in 2010-11 with Florida. After failing to secure a deal with a team in the NHL, the 32-year-old agreed to terms with Bern SC of the Swiss League and could return there if this tryout doesn't end in a roster spot. Look for the winger to be in a battle with left side player David Booth for that final spot.
