I've really been thinking about what the Avs should do lately. I know this summer is already tough enough...but this core (Gabe, Nate, Rants, Nuke, Cale, Toews, Girard) and coach have been together for a long time. It's amounted to one cup victory. Maybe with all the shit that's happened, it is necessary to shake some things up. At the very least I'd like to see some new assistants and Bednar to come up with a new strategy or three.
Also, they won't do it, but I would trade Rants this summer. I just think the ability to keep JD and get another top six winger to fill two spots is much more in line with what we need moving forward. We have two good centers. It'd suck to only have two (Lehky and Rants) good wingers to split between them. As for selling tickets and jersey's I think JD would be at least some consolation there and it really depends on who else we can get in either the trade or with the cap space opened up.
