Someone mentioned Romanov earlier.... I want a Romanov/Pageau combo from the Isles.

Ritchie + 2026 1st for Romanov + Pageau(@50%).



Drouin - Mack - Mikko
Colton - Mitts - Nuke
Lehky - Pageau - Wood*
LOC - Kelly - Kivi


Toews - Makar
Girard - Manson
Romanov - Malinski


Then imagine Landy returns for the playoffs on that 3rd line in Woods spot.

The only issue I see with Romanov is he's due a new contract.

Do we then trade G in the off-season and run
Toews Makar
Romanov Malinski
Behrens Manson

Or trade Manson?

Not sure we'd have to trade anyone honestly. I'd have to look at the cap situation a little more and I guess it would also depend on how much Romanov would want though.


But he's an RFA so we could also just flip him again next summer if he ends up wanting too much. A real solid playoff run and he could return us another 1st tbh.

Romanov is a top 4 LD and will want to get paid accordingly.

It might come as a surprise to some but the Avs aren't in a position to pay 2nd pair money to a guy that will play on their 3rd pair.

I thought we were trading for Crosby($8.7m) + Pettersson($4.025m), activating Landeskog($7m) and sneaking in a cheeky Pageau($5m)?
