Disney still trying to unload team
Cup win unlikely to jack up price

Walt Disney Co. may be about to find out exactly how much money a Stanley Cup victory is worth.
Four years after it first put the Anaheim Mighty Ducks up for sale, Disney is still trying to unload the money-losing club.
Unfortunately, the world's third-largest media company will probably discover that even a championship season isn't likely to bolster the price it gets for the Ducks, who — behind the goaltending of Jean-Sebastien Giguere — are up 3-0 in their best-of-seven playoff semi-final against the Minnesota Wild. A win tonight would propel Anaheim into the finals for the first time in its 10-year history.
