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

[Bender]

There is a rumor Flames are interested in Carlo, which means they’re buyers and not sellers. Just forget about getting Kadri. Also to remind, they actually said Kadri isn’t available. Not sure why we keep bringing his name up for a trade

No...it means they are trading Rasmus to us but still want to get a replacement.

Based on how MacFarland spoke, it seems like they’re sticking with Mittelstadt.

Yeah I was going to mention this as well.

Unless CMac is being coy with this answer, it doesn't sound like Mitts is being traded at the deadline, based on his comments after being asked about Casey and Lindgren's friendship.

The question came from Rachel too, who works for the Avs.

"Casey we all saw what he did last year at the end of the year and into a tough playoff series against Winnipeg and then Dallas and then the start of this year was really good hockey. So we definitely need to see that version of Casey and I'm confident that we will. Those Minnesota guys stick together obviously. I think bringing Ryan in, if that is a spark for Casey, or him, all the better for the Avalanche."

Yeah sure but I wouldn't put much stock into that answer one way or another.

He's not going to answer 'yeah we know they are best friends but we've decided to trade Casey so I guess they won't be together very long'...

I'm confident the Avs will try to get an upgrade on Mittelstadt if they can swing it and if not, they'll hang onto him but that's less than ideal. That involves rolling the dice and hoping he can get back to being the confident player he was at the start of the season.

Pretty big gamble.

If Mittelstadt ends up staying his ass better be living at Mackinnon Manor in the offseason training and eating the way Nathan does.
