Rumor: 2023-2024 Trade Rumors and Free Agency: Off-season is in full swing

[GeoRox89]

Game 6 is currently on. I don’t know if the NHL network is having a mercy on Avs fans or what but they’re showing the games Avs won in that series.

Wait til you see the draft lottery. It’s going to be crazy

Have the Avs traded for a 2C yet?

That’s a hard maybe, we’ll see come October if they really have or haven’t

Summer is just going to fly by for you if it’s only April where you live. Get ready in a couple months some American politicians are going to blame Canada for having too many wildfires

Avs are probably gonna give Newhook another try to prove he can be a 2C. If he can’t do the job again, I guess it’s still JTC’s job

[Alex Jones]

I imagine that they knew his problems but he didn't keep his word.

I've never ever been under the impression that he's a bad guy.... but you can't trust an addict, that's just the truth of it.

 

[myperbixhurts]

I hate the offseason so much

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

If the Avs could somehow find a sneaky way to get Ryan McLeod I’d be pretty happy. He’d be great to complete the 3rd line, with him and Colton splitting faceoffs depending on whose hot at that moment

Let’s drink!

Cheers to competent second liners in 2023

Starting to get the same vibes as last year. The team needs work if they want to lift the cup and must have a big deadline to make it possible.

It's a complete mystery if they even want to spend this deadline, probably not based on past seasons.

The season they won the cup, they went pretty hard at the deadline.

They simply need to be healthy when the playoffs roll around.

They are as good as any of the top teams in the west.

Yeah they had a brilliant deadline, but it was only that one damn time. Every other attempt during the cup window has been a total dud.

Also, statement by the Yotes after Galchenyuk cleared:

"We are aware of the incident involving Alex Galchenyuk and strongly condemn this type of behavior. Once the Club was made aware of the allegations, we immediately began the process of terminating his Standard Player's Contract through the proper channels in conjunction with the National Hockey League. As a result, the Arizona Coyotes today have exercised the team's right to terminate the contract of Alex Galchenyuk due to a material breach of the terms of his Standard Player's Contract. The Club will have no further comment at this time."

There's a reason you feel this way, it's because it's 100% the same. They've just shifted the issues, and this management has proven to be absolute dog shit at in season trading/adjustments, sans one year.

This is why I'm concerned. They need to head into the season with as few problems/areas of concern as possible. Which will require them to be proactive over the next month and a half so when mid September rolls around they are pretty much good to go outside very minor tweeks.

 

[BobRossColton]

Hindsight is always 20/20 but we should've claimed tolvanen last year. No idea if Wood and Colton would've acquired but a Wood Colton Tolvanen third line might've been pretty good

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Yeah they had a brilliant deadline, but it was only that one damn time. Every other attempt during the cup window has been a total dud.

I'd argue that our cup window truly opened up when we acquired Toews, so we are 1/3 in terms of deadlines.

Deadline 1 was Soderberg, Nemeth and Dubnyk - Clear dud. Honestly might have been better to have stood pat

Deadline 2 was Manson, Sturm, Lehks and Cogs - Arguably one of the top-3 deadlines in the past decade for any team

Deadline 3 was JJ, Eller and Rydahl - Not terrible on paper, but the fact that the 2C hole never got filled puts this in dudville

Well that's definitely one RHD I don't want the Avs to sign.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Also, statement by the Yotes after Galchenyuk cleared:

Easy to do with a guy with a history and who is only signed for 1-year and making the league minimum. Had this been someone making several million on a multi-year deal, I doubt they do this.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Well that's definitely one RHD I don't want the Avs to sign.

He'll still end up in Carolina. This is just a way for the Canes to sign him for even cheaper than the 50% retained cap hit had the trade for him gone through. Screams cap circumvention to me.
