Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency - Offseason Edition

[Pierce Hawthorne]

What if Colorado retained 50% and Avalanche retained 50%?

I believe you then have 100% retention, which is likely cap circumvention and the league probably wouldn't approve.

Would you sign Goodrow @ 1M? The results last year were a disaster, but hits and PK and some random playoff goals.

Then Denver would have to retain 50% also. So would the Avs and Aves as well

Absofruitly

 

[LOFIN]

Pretty happy for what we are paying Toews

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Toews is the much better player, but Toews is also 3 years older so his contract probably doesn't age quite as well.

Why did the Rangers waive Goodrow? He was one of their best players in the playoffs. Had 6 goals and was good on PK and stuff if I’m not mistaking

 

[jaisen73]

That's a nice bit of business by Vancouver. I still think Makar-Toews is the best Top 2 in the league but Hughes-Hronek would be the envy of many teams.

He's brutaly bad.

I thought he was good for the Rangers, maybe I missed the bad stuff

Statistically he gets caved in 5x5. I think dispite his random playoff goals, his shot share was something like 40% in the playoffs.

 

[AvsFan2123]

I think we all should know by now the Avs won’t have the best roster to start the year. But there’s some very interesting people out there to possibly sign. Guys coming off down years going into FA, possibly being bought out, etc. Labanc, Skinner, Goodrow off the top of my head. Not sure if reclamation projects is the right term to use. But guys who could very well sign cheap. Which we definitely all know the Avs need. Try their absolute hardest to get guys to sign 1 year here and revamp their careers after a stint here. There’s risk on their side but definitely potential for reward too.

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Sounds like San Jose might just claim Goodrow.

Sounds like the whole team, at least in the games I saw.

Makes too much money relative his role. They will plan to buy him out and use the extra $2M or so on other things

 

[BobRossColton]

How about signing Justin Schultz for a million? Then it bottom D
Behrens Schultz
Malinski

He’s likely too expensive, but have you ever watched him try to play defense?

Not really.

Still really wish we had made a play for mikkola... Unknown if we ever did.

bring Trouba in after he is bought out

 

[AslanRH]

Goodrow may be getting the "see, no one wants you for free" treatment in hopes he expands his list of teams on the M-NTC.
I think they can move him cheaply with a prospect/later pick to a team like SJS or Chicago, but I'd imagine they are currently on the no trade list.

I'm pretty sure the reason he is waived is because SJ and NYR were discussing a trade and Goodrow wouldn't waive. You would rather do a trade for a small cost rather than just waive and hope someone picks him up.

So 95% chance he is claimed, most likely by SJ like Friedman hinted.

Bring back Zads, bring in Trouba, get to the finals by murder.

 

[ABasin]

Would you sign Goodrow @ 1M?

Sure.

 

[dahrougem2]

Not really.

Genuine curiosity here: why do you suggest SO many players? Especially if you don't watch them play?
