Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Talk | Part Deux

Shhhh, I’m eagerly awaiting @Pokecheque telling me who this best forward in franchise history is on their current roster.

I mean, it has to be Kiefer Sherwood, right? He's like Henrik Sedin, Daniel Sedin, Markus Naslund, and the leadership of Trevor Linden all rolled into one!

Clearly the Avs should just start interviewing players by asking them "how fast you skate" and if the answer isn't "yes" then we can move along to the next person.

Not sure Avs can get that #2 guy... maybe that #4 guy for Nuke? Philly loves russians, need to appease Mitchkov.

To be fair, I think Jim Benning did sooooooo much damage, Rutherford and Allvin deserve credit for cleaning some of it up but honestly I think it went totally off the rails when they hired Tocchet. He’s a bad coach they wasted prime years of their best ever forward and best ever defenseman (possibly best PLAYER period) with this mess.

Doesn’t help the most talented goalie they’ve ever had probably won’t ever recover from whatever injury he’s got.

Luongo ?

 

[Pokecheque]

Luongo ?

No.

Tippett would be great on the Avs, wouldn’t love Nuke for him though.

AJ now jumping on the JTM to Avs bandwagon. Guess there's been enough smoke from actual insiders for him to play rumormonger for the day.

That worked well for him

 

[Miri]

They got a 3rd line center and a protected 1st for a guy that averaged 90 points the last few seasons

Sounds like HF dream-trade. That 3rd line center brings depth and the pick might actually average 100 points seasons in the future. Imagine the options with the freed cap as well

Philly loves Russians? What is this based on?.

 

[Richard88]

I've seen enough.

Go get the fastest players you can find. This team and Bednars systems work better and better the faster our team speed is.

What would it take to get Barzal?

 

[flyfysher]

How do you propose to extricate him from Lou? Replace the management?

 

[Miri]

Who?

Kiefer Sherwood - one and only, formerly of Avalanche fame

Edit: got beaten to it

 

[John Mandalorian]

More seriously, Ive thought that Mitts would have some appeal there. Hes younger than most of their good players, fairly cheap, and doesnt have too much term.

I know people like to dunk on Mitts. But it seems like a lot of teams want/need a 2C.

 

[Richard88]

How do you propose to extricate him from Lou? Replace the management?

Obviously with a trade offer he'd accept.

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Yet they always somehow find a way to get in... and beat the Leafs.

Oh that's for sure haha

I need MacK to convince Marchand and Crosby to come to Colorado after the 4 Nations.

Marchand is a bit cooked but I would still take those two.
